One of the main holidays of Marbella, San Bernabe Fair ( Romeria of Saint Barnabas ) is being held during the whole second week of June 2009. Luxurious resort city in Costa del Sol, Marbella is the only host in Andalusia for this magnificent fair that attracts thousands of tourists annually from all over the world.
The celebration is held around 11 June, the official San Bernabe Day. Exact dates of the fair depend on the decision of the administration of Marbella.
