FIESA 2017
The FIESA exhibition this year is dedicated to the Arts, presenting an interconnected set of more than 80 scenes that illustrate theatre, dance, music, literature, architecture, painting, cinema and photography, among other forms of Artistic expression.
FIESA is the largest exhibition of sand sculptures in the world, due to the amount of sand used; 45 thousand tons, and the magnitude of some sculpted pieces.
SandCity is open to the public until 31st October. The exhibition is open day and night - it's very magical at night, when it's illuminated.
