The San Isidro Festivities in Alcobendas will culminate on Sunday, May 17, with a day dedicated to intergenerational coexistence, featuring a popular paella, itinerant shows, and leisure activities at the Fairgrounds.

The Alcobendas Fairgrounds will be the hub for the final celebrations of the San Isidro Festivities, where a large crowd is expected to enjoy a communal meal. Starting at 2:00 PM, 1,200 free portions of paella will be distributed, complete with lemon and bread, an increase from previous years to ensure everyone gets a serving.
In line with the municipal commitment to sustainability, all utensils used for the meal, including cutlery, plates, and napkins, will be biodegradable. During the meal, the Diminuts street parade will entertain the crowd with large structures, music, and humor, transforming the space into a visual fantasy world.
The children's program for Sunday is one of the most comprehensive, starting at 12:30 PM with a performance by Pollo Pepe and his friends on the main stage, offering an interactive musical. In the afternoon, the Imagina Kids booth will present the Gran Show de Chulapo Enigma, a family competition preceded by workshops on multicolored magnifying glasses and traditional games.
One of the most anticipated activities is the Family Day with the Alcobendas Police, taking place from 12:00 PM to 2:00 PM. Attendees will have the opportunity to learn about the work of various local units and witness a spectacular exhibition by the canine unit, where officers will showcase the skills of their four-legged partners.
Coinciding with World Recycling Day, the City Council will set up an information point to promote proper waste separation. Additionally, the Addiction Treatment Center will organize a healthy habits scavenger hunt for families, focusing on preventing addictive behaviors related to drugs and technology overuse.
The musical grand finale of the festivities will be performed by the Guerreras K-Pop phenomenon, taking the main stage at 7:00 PM. This show, combining striking choreographies and vibrant aesthetics with a story of personal growth, is designed to offer an evening full of rhythm and good vibes for both young people and adults.

"We have designed this program so that everyone has their space during these days, thus celebrating the pride of being residents of Alcobendas."
