August 2 and 3 The medieval religious play of the Auto de la Asunción in Jumilla
Jumilla continues to revive its medieval religious traditions with an adaptation of this 16th-century work
One of the traditions in Jumilla prior to the national fiesta of Assumption Day on August 15 is the performance of the medieval “Auto de la Asunción de Nuestra Señora”, which is being performed in 2024 in the parish church of Santiago Apóstol on August 2 and 3 at 21.30.
The play is being staged by the “El Losao de Santiago” cultural association and is a work from the 16th century adapted by Juan Miguel Valero Moreno and directed by Juan Simón Abellán. The musical director is María del Carmen Corredor Cano with original music by Pedro García Simón.
Tickets are on sale at 10 euros at the local Librería Papiros and online here, with discounts for under-25s booking online.
The Auto de la Asunción de Nuestra Señora had not been performed for over 300 years until it was revived after the pandemic by El Losao de Santiago in 2021, responding to the fact that a brotherhood in Jumilla has existed devoted to Our Lady of the Assumption since the 16th century. The drama is an enactment of the last days of the Virgin Mary, and like other “autos” in Spain is a religious work with its roots in the faith of the Middle Ages. Similar pieces are performed in the Murcia localities of Aledo, Alhama de Murcia, Cehegín, Fuente Álamo, Librilla and the city of Murcia, having been revived after they were banned in the 18th century by Cardinalo Belluga.

Oficina de Turismo Jumilla
The tourist office in the centre of Jumilla is easily found by driving straight into the centre of the town along the Avenida de Murcia and following the signposts. The tourist office is alongside the Parque de Don Albano Martínez Molina, where there are a number of parking spaces.
Jumilla, in the north of the Region of Murcia, has become internationally famous over recent decades due to the quality of the wines produced in the municipality, and wine tourism has begun to attract visitors from other parts of Spain and the rest of Europe.
The tourist office is happy to provide a range of maps and leaflets showing the different bodegas which can be visited within the municipality. Some of these form part of the Rutas del Vino de Jumilla, the Jumilla wine route, and can either be visited as a guided tour or sell their produce directly to the public.(see feed below for more details)
However, the town and the surrounding countryside have plenty of other attractions for visitors, and the popularity of Jumilla wines is leading more and more people to discover other facets of the tenth largest municipality in Spain.
These include the spectacular countryside and birdlife in the Sierra del Carche, the historic remains which range from cave paintings and a Roman mausoleum to the castle, the Iglesia de Santiago, the Town Hall and the Teatro Vico, and the gastronomy: rich stews are accompanied not only by the wines of the area but also by Jumilla pears, which also enjoy Denomination of Origin status.
Tourism in Jumilla is not as seasonal as it is in the coastal areas of the Region of Murcia, but the town is at its liveliest during the fiestas in Holy Week and the August Fair, which incorporates the grape harvest celebrations and the Moors and Christians parades.
The Altiplano of the Region of Murcia, which consists of the municipalities of Jumilla and Yecla, is only just over an hour by car from the Mar Menor, Cartagena, Mazarrón, Torrevieja and Alicante, and anyone wishing to visit real inland Spain and world-class wineries is advised to include Jumilla in their schedule.
