Cariña La Fiesta 2.0: Alicante’s most colourful party is back for round two
Cariña La Fiesta is coming back. On 2 May 2026, El Muelle Live in the Port of Alicante will host Cariña La Fiesta 2.0 — the LGBTQ+ celebration that made its debut in September 2025 and quickly became one of the most talked-about events on Alicante’s cultural calendar. The first edition set the tone: inclusive, loud, joyful, and unapologetically itself. The second one picks up right where it left off.
Cariña is built around a simple idea: that a party can be more than a party. It’s a gathering point — a place where music, drag performances and a shared sense of freedom create something that feels genuinely meaningful. The event describes itself not as a show to watch but as a community to be part of, and that spirit is what’s brought people back for a second edition.
On 2 May 2026, El Muelle Live — the open-air cultural venue in the heart of the Port of Alicante — will host the second chapter of Cariña. The venue, which opened in its current form in 2025, has fast become one of the city’s most vibrant event spaces, with a capacity for thousands under the open Mediterranean sky. It’s a fitting stage for a celebration of this kind.
