The millenary city, the new city

Sevilla is still Sevilla, and we love that. But the city of three thousand-years-old history, emblematic and memorable, opens up now for the visitors with a brand new air, new meanings and new proposals who aim at making the experience more complete, authentic, shared and more sustainable.

Sevilla in 2022

We have all learned to reinvent ourselves a little bit. Destinations such as Sevilla too. The city entered in 2022 confident of being building an urban model with more future than ever; bringing together projects and promoting activities that help to better enjoy Sevilla more and in a more sustainable way. The same city, the same Sevilla for residents and visitors.

In Sevilla, the tourist experience is not superfluous nor ephemeral, it is a full-of-content experience that embraces the visitor from the first moment and joins them with quality during their whole stay. Sometimes it is an image, a scent and a sound; sometimes a story and a legend; other times a long-lasting friendship, but there is always a common thread that gives meaning to enjoy a multifaceted never-ending city.

Sevilla wants their participants to discover those layers that increase the reality of its historical streets and its outstanding heritage. And she wants them to do it with the best facilities at their disposal. 

This year in Sevilla you can enjoy a wide variety of plans and events that bets for culture, avant-garde, sports… and for innovation and technology applied to tourism. Sevilla decided to be a smart destination which, based on innovation, succeeds to match in a sustainable way the lifelong quality of life and the current quality of tourism.

We’ve done all of this for you, and we can’t wait for you to feel it for yourselves.

Do you think you know Sevilla?

Sevilla invites you to discover all its layers. The new driving thread of the city aims to get you to know in depth everything that used to escape from the tourist storytelling. To make you discover those unknown corners, recovered spaces and fascinating stories. 

We have the greatest historic centre of Spain and the second of Europe, and now we bring our neighbourhoods closer to visitors, we have an amazing full-of-monuments patrimony and we also want to share our contemporary architecture. We are the city of the Feria and the Holy week, but we also want you to know our festivals, cultural and sport proposals, and our new leisure spaces.
