Feria de Pedro Romero: starts around the first week in September in Ronda and lasts for one week. The main event is a procession of horse drawn carriages through the streets of Ronda with everyone dressed in 18th century costumes followed by a bullfight at the Maestranza bullring. This takes place on the first Saturday of the fair. The event brings in crowds from around the world making it difficult to get accommodation in Ronda around this time.
