- Caveat on the figureThe 29th edition. We take TICKETS ISSUED — a hard quantity. The body publishes alongside it "almost 111,000 spectators and participants": a composite, adding those entering on accreditation, invitation and direct access. Accreditations: 4,761. The 111,000 excludes the MaF programme (about 15,000) and La Villa del Mar (10,500) — so the body names the exclusions but not the composition of what remains.
- Origin not publishedOrganisers do not publish nationality at the gate: in the Festival Codex archive the field is empty on all 251 full-schema records across three countries. Of 83 Spanish events, three publish a breakdown.
- Inbound flow to the community that month1,181,723 foreign trips — 7.4% of the community's annual flow. The community peaks in August. Estimate
- Country mix of the flowThe country mix is published for August only, and for a festival in March it says nothing: putting it here would pass one month off as another.
- What this is NOTThis is the flow into the community, not the audience of the festival. Not one of the 83 Spanish festivals publishes a visitor passport. Basis: trips inferred from phone positioning — NOT a passport — TMOV_R, measurement from mobile-phone positioning.

How to read the marks
- 'confirmed' on an attendance figure means: a named body stated it for a named edition.
- 'estimate' means: the body itself presents the figure as an estimate and publishes no method.
The month is given for a typical year: Spanish fiesta dates often follow the church calendar and move. Verified 1 September 2026. Every figure on this page comes from the same register that feeds the tables — there is no second source of truth. What the register does not hold is absent here rather than estimated.
