What February is like in Seville

Spring arrives early in Seville. February brings mild days near 65F (18C), sunny afternoons, and cool nights. Crowds are still light, the sights run normal hours, and prices are low. The orange trees are still dotted with fruit, and the parks start to green up by the end of the month.

It suits couples, budget travelers, and families who want comfortable sightseeing weather. It is a smart choice before the Holy Week price jump. If you want the famous spring festivals, you will need to aim for late March or April instead, and pay more.

Make the most of February

What is especially good about Seville this month.

01

Comfortable walking weather

02

Rowboats at Plaza de Espana

Kids love the rowboats on the canal at Plaza de Espana, and the weather is pleasant for it.

03

Prices before the spring surge

Hotels are still cheap, so you can afford a nicer room in the old town.

What to pack for February

  • A light jacket for evenings
  • Layers for sunny days and cool nights
  • Comfortable walking shoes
  • Sunglasses

Beat the crowds

  • Book the Alcazar's first entry slot and the cathedral right after opening. Tour groups build by 10:30am.
  • Plan around Holy Week and the Feria if you do not want them. The weeks just before or after offer the same spring weather at far lower prices.
  • Eat and move on Spanish time: sights in the morning, rest in the afternoon heat, and tapas from 8:30pm or later.
  • Stay in Triana or near the Alameda rather than directly in Santa Cruz for quieter nights and more local bars.

Know before you go

  • Many shops close in the afternoon, roughly 2pm to 5pm, and reopen into the evening. Big chains and the main sights stay open through the day.
  • In August, some family-run restaurants and shops close for a week or more while owners take holidays.
  • During Holy Week, procession routes block streets and some sights change hours. The cathedral has special schedules.
  • During the Feria, many local businesses keep short hours because the city is at the fairground.
