JIMENA This year marks the 30th anniversary of Jimena's annual Flamenco Festival. Until now, it was one of the most popular such events in the Campo de Gibraltar, attracting rising stars of the Andalucian flamenco firmament - but now, in what should be its celebratory 30th year, it is somewhat diminished, no doubt we will be told for lack of funds, though we venture it is for lack of political will and skill. In any case, the 'festival' features Marta González Sevillano (voice), Pedro Campo Quintana (guitar) and Salvador Campo Quintana (percussion) as the headliner, with local cantaores (singers) Gabriel Jiménez and Jaime Martín accompanied by Manolo Cortés on guitar. Scheduled for Friday, September 2, at the square by the railway station, and starting at 11pm. (Check our UpComing Events calendar now at the foot of this page.)
