Funded by the Consorcio de Residuos S\u00f3lidos, in conjunction with Moj\u00e1car Council\u2019s Fiesta Department, it is only suitable for over 14\u2019s and entry, at the Town\u2019s Centro de Usos M\u00faltiples near the Fuente is free. Starting at 9.30p.m., the monologue has a reflective, yet fun scientific theme, based on recycling and includes some interesting live visual experiments.<br \/>\nOn Saturday, October 7, the Holy Mass in honour of the Patron will be held at 12 noon in Moj\u00e1car Pueblo\u2019s Santa Mar\u00eda Church, during which there will be performances by the soprano Svetlana Alina Polushina, along with the organist, Antonio Ca\u00f1ete Serrano. This will be followed by a procession with the image of the Virgen del Rosario being carried along the streets, accompanied by officials, townspeople and the Town Band.<br \/>\nThen, it is the children&#8217;s turn to be entertained with a show to transport them into a fantasy world full of games, \u201cAventuras de Fin de Semana\u201d.  It starts at 6 p.m. and admission is free, at the Centro de Usos M\u00faltiples.<br \/>\nOne event that everyone looks forward to during this fiesta, is the traditional horseback ribbon runs, with mixed couples competing.  Everyone is invited to come along and join in this fun event that has been part of Mojaquera tradition for hundreds of years. The ribbons will be collected at the Fuente at 5 p.m. on the Sunday followed by the jovial horseback runs at 5.30 p.m. with musical entertainment by the Town Band, thus bringing Moj\u00e1car\u2019s Patron Saint festivities to a close for yet another year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Over the coming weekend, Moj\u00e1car will hold the fiesta in honour of its Patron Saint, the Virgen del Rosario.
