More than just a festival, Noche del Vino is a celebration of Cómpeta's rich winemaking tradition, local heritage, and Andalusian culture. Every year, thousands of visitors gather in the picturesque streets and Plaza Almijara to enjoy an unforgettable evening where wine, music and flamenco take centre stage.
This year's Flamenco Festival promises a fantastic line-up, with performances by renowned artists Pitingo and Jesús Méndez, alongside the acclaimed flamenco dance group led by Antonio Verónica and Saray Cortés.
