Festival in honour of Saint Hillary of Poitiers
Comares, Malaga
Festival
10 January 2010

Comares, a village perched high on a rock on the western extremes of the province of Málaga in the Axarquía district, is paying homage to its patron saint, Saint Hillary of Poitiers.
According to the tradition, the religious services start the festival; first there is a mass in the church of la Encarnación and it is followed by a procession of the image of Saint Hillary through the village streets. When everyone starts to feel hungry it is time to enjoy the large paella, there is enough for everyone. There is no shortage of music either and the celebration is accompanied by verdiales folk groups, who keep on playing until the image of the Saint is returned to the church.
