Festival of el Emigrante Activity · Almadenejos, Valle de Alcudia, Ciudad Real Image of Almadenejos, not of the place itself. The Fiesta del Emigrante (Emigrant's Festival) of Almadenejos is held in early August, when the village welcomes back residents who emigrated and return on holiday to spend a few days in their home town, an event that reflects the heavy emigration the town suffered after the mining decline of the area.
