February 8 First Carnival Cuerva Run in Águilas
A test of athletic stamina and drinking prowess as Carnival gets under way in Águilas!
A new event has been added to the already considerable programme of the Carnival celebrations in Águilas for 2026, and the first edition of the “CARNIVAL CUERVA RUN” is being held at the fairground on Sunday 8th February, starting at 12.00.
Competitors will be running over a course of approximately 5 kilometres, during which they will be making three stops for glasses of the “cuerva” liqueur which is an integral part of Carnival in this part of the world – hardly an event we are likely to see replicated in the Olympics for the foreseeable future, although this writer seems to remember similar contests taking place at college!
The cost of registration is 10 euros (including the drinks!) and those wishing to take part should do so online here through the Instagram account @c.trail.ciudad.de.aguilas.
