Javea International Festival - July 2024
The Javea International Festival, or "Festival Internacional Jávea/Xábia," is set to celebrate its 29th edition in July 2024. This vibrant festival has become an unmissable part of the town's cultural calendar, bringing together a diverse array of cultures and communities to enjoy music, dance, food, and arts from around the world.
Each year, the festival attracts thousands of visitors who enjoy the multicultural atmosphere. As Javea's mayor, Rosa Cardona, aptly puts it, "This Festival has the special power of bringing half the world together in a single street. It allows us to move from one country to another in just a few steps."
With 19 countries participating this year, including first-time appearances by the United States and Ireland, the event is near its maximum capacity of 21 nations, promising an unforgettable experience.
