Be warned don't go early, as most nights things do not start to get going much before eleven at night, and carry on to whenever they feel like going home which sometimes is as late/early as eight am! One of the reasons siesta was invented, get a good afternoons sleep before the Fiesta starts, as if you live in the area a Fiesta is taking place, you will not be getting any sleep on those nights!!
