Corpus 2026: Map Shows Over 70 Casetas

- Granada City Council has published the definitive 2026 Corpus fairground map, confirming 72 casetas in Almanjáyar ahead of the festival running from May 30 to June 6. - The layout breaks down into 62 traditional casetas, 7 institutional ones and 3 commercial spaces, plus a bar caseta and a churrería. - It matters because 2026 also brings a rewritten fairground rulebook — with new caseta categories, accessibility requirements and tighter noise controls.

Granada’s Corpus fair now has its working blueprint. The city has published the definitive map for the 2026 recinto ferial in Almanjáyar, and the big headline is simple: 72 casetas are in, plots are assigned, and the fair’s social core is basically locked three weeks before opening night. The dates matter too — this year’s feria runs from Saturday, May 30, to Saturday, June 6. (granada.org) ### What actually got published? The city has released the final distribution of casetas and the adjudication of spaces for Corpus 2026. That turns an abstract “the fair is coming” into something practical — organizers know where they are, regulars can start planning meetups, and anyone who treats the feria like a weeklong migration pattern can finally see the layout. (granadadigital([granada.org)s are we talking about? The final count is 72 casetas. Most of them — 62 — are traditional casetas, which is where the fair keeps its local club-and-peña character. Then there are 7 institutional casetas and 3 commercial ones. On top of that, the recinto also includes a bar caseta and a churrería, which are not nothing if you’ve ever tried to survive a feria night on timing alone. (granadadigital.es) ### Where do they all go? The fairground keeps its usual street-style layout in Almanjáyar. The main access comes through Calle La Zambra, with Calle El Vito running parallel on the left and Calle La Caña plus Calle Maimones on the right. Cross streets like La Reja, Verdiales and Martinetes complete the grid. That sounds like a dry planning detail, but it’s the difference between wandering and actually finding the caseta you promised to meet people at. (granadadigital.es) ### Which casetas stand out? The institutional list gives a quick read on who has an official presence this year: the joint Ayuntamiento-Diputación caseta, PP, PSOE, UGT, CSIF, Emasagra and PCA all appear in the published breakdown. The rest of the map is dominated by named traditional casetas — dozens of them — which is really the point of Corpus in Granada. This is less a trade fair than a temporary social city with its own streets and regulars. (granadadigital.es) ### Is there anything new for 2026? Yes — and this is the part that makes the map more than a map. Earlier this year, Granada approved the start of an update to the ferial ordinance, the first major rewrite since 2018. The city created two new subcategories inside the traditional caseta model — familiares and populares — to reflect how the fair has actually evolved on the ground. (granada([granadadigital.es)orpus-actualizacion-normativa-ferial-2026_0_2005656527.html)) ### Why does that rule change matter? Because it changes what kind of feria the city is trying to build. The updated framework is meant to simplify procedures, but also to push the event toward more accessibility, more order and fewer friction points. Institutional, traditional and commercial casetas now have clearer eli(granadahoy.com)ople with autism and other sensory sensitivities. (granadahoy.com) ### What else should visitors know? The fair will also include a Punto Violeta next to the Ayuntamiento-Diputación caseta — the space aimed at prevention and response around sexist harassment and assaults. That has become a standard piece of the feria setup, but it’s still one of the more concrete signs that the event is being managed as a big public space, not just a party. (granadadigital.es) ### Bottom line The news here is straightforward but useful: Granada’s 2026 Corpus fair now has a final map, a final caseta count, and a clearer set of rules behind it. The feria hasn’t started yet — but the shape of it has. (granada.org)
