The Sevillian caseta, the heart of the April Fair event
Imagen
Each caseta is a corner of the fairground where guests sit, toast, play and dance. We set up one or several, in a row like a fair street, and they can stay up for several nights in a row.
- Marquees 346 cm high × 300 × 300 cm, with the client's logo if desired.
- Décor included: fair paper lanterns, geraniums, a barrel per caseta, small terrace tables and chairs, decorative wine bottles and petals on the floor.
- One game per caseta, chosen from the fairground mini games (190 × 70 cm), with prizes.
- One hostess per caseta, dressed in Sevillian costume, who welcomes guests, explains the game and keeps the fun going.
A real example: four casetas with themed hostesses for three nights in a row in Madrid, from 10:30 pm to 3 am, set up on the afternoon of the first day and dismantled the morning after the last.
Sevillanas and live flamenco for the April Fair event
Imagen
At the April Fair, people dance sevillanas in every caseta. To get everyone involved, the dancers teach the audience a few steps and bring them onto the floor.
- Flamenco and Spanish dance with guitar: 1 to 4 dancers in 5 to 8-minute sets, with shawl, fan, bata de cola and castanets.
- Group with singer, guitars, percussion and palmeros for a main stage.
- Portable 2 × 2 m wooden tablao so the footwork can be heard.
- Fire dancers in flamenco dresses, to guitar and percussion, indoors or outdoors.
- Stilt walkers in handmade flamenco dresses to welcome guests.

Horses, mechanical bull and Calle del Infierno at the April Fair event

Horses and rides are the other side of the fair. We combine them depending on the venue and the group:
- Equestrian show: a rider with a thoroughbred horse and a flamenco dancer, in traditional costume, for the guests' arrival.
- Horse-drawn carriage for the hosts' entrance or for photos.
- Mechanical bull with an operator who adjusts the intensity for each guest.
- Calle del Infierno: high striker, funhouse mirrors and fairground goalkeeper, like the fairground rides.

- Men: traje corto (short Andalusian suit), or a white shirt, jacket and Cordoban hat.
