About

The Living Nativity of Beas is one of the oldest living nativities in Andalusia, born on Christmas of 1970. Since that date, it has been organised for half a century by the Brotherhood of Nuestra Señora de los Clarines. It represents traditional biblical scenes, with children and animals as protagonists.

Many offices and ways of life of yesteryear are displayed, making use of tools and other old elements in the representation. Each scene is something typical of the lifestyle of the village throughout its history, and all of them use antiques: domestic articles, furniture and household utensils, farm tools, weight and measurement instruments and machines and devices from workshops and craftsmanship production, among other things.

The Living Nativity in Beas represents the main tourist attractions of the town. Therefore, the City Council of Beas organises a programme of parallel activities to the Nativity under the inscription of BEAS LIVES CHRISTMAS, which includes tours, hiking, concerts, flamenco festivals, street markets, illumination with candles, etc., which transform Beas into the village of Christmas in the province of Huelva.
