flag UK tourists in Spain face fines up to €3,000 for public drinking during winter festivals.

flag Spain is warning British tourists about strict laws against public drinking during its winter festivals, including Three Kings' Day and New Year’s Eve, where carrying alcohol in public—known as 'botellón'—is illegal in most cities and can lead to fines up to €3,000. flag With nearly 6.8 million UK visitors last winter, many are unaware the practice is prohibited, especially in historic centers like Barcelona, Madrid, Valencia, and Seville, where enforcement increases during events. flag Authorities urge travelers to enjoy drinks only at licensed terraces to avoid penalties and respect local customs, ensuring a safer, more authentic experience.
