OPEN DAY
Fairway’s Open Day is designed to complete the 5th Forum of the Camino de Santiago by offering attractive activities, for both Santiago residents and visitors alike. This event will take place on the first day of Fairway, coinciding with the public holiday of November 1 to make it easier to attend.
Based on the Camino de Santiago, different types of initiatives have been planned for all ages. These include the “I Camino” Route (which will enable us to discover the city from a different perspective thanks to Official Tourist Guides); escape room sessions; mindfulness workshops, or gastronomic initiatives that will take us on a tour of the different Camino routes featuring a variety of tapas. There will also be a musical performance to round off the day. All these initiatives are admission free.
