Cervantes Festival in Alcalá de Henares: Mercado Cervantino 2014

El Mercado Cervantino is an annual medieval fair in Alcalá de Henares, the home of Cervantes himself. Ever year, this small city dresses up in medieval decorations and garments, and the streets are filled with markets, street performances, artisan workshops and much more! Festival activities run from 11am to 2am, and take place in and around Calle Mayor. Only a half hour from the center of Madrid by Cercanías, here’s a link on how to get to Alcalá.
