🇪🇸 Seville · When to go
The best time to visit Seville
Seville is best in the shoulder seasons — March–May and late September–November — when it’s warm and sunny without the brutal summer heat. Spring is also fiesta season (Semana Santa and the April Feria). Summer is fierce (often 40°C+); winter is mild, quiet and good value.
Best overall
March–May and late September–November — warm, sunny and comfortable.
Best weather
Spring and autumn; winters are mild but cooler, summers extreme.
Fewer crowds
Winter (December–February) and the autumn shoulder, outside the big fiestas.
Lowest prices
Winter (outside Christmas) is cheapest; midsummer also dips because of the heat.
When to avoid
July–August for scorching 40°C+ heat; and note Semana Santa and the April Feria bring crowds and high prices (if wonderful atmosphere).
