15 Best Things to Do in Seville in November

1. Walk Through María Luisa Park’s Autumn Colours

November is when Parque de María Luisa really shows off. The palm trees stay green, but everything else turns gold, rust, and burgundy. It’s quieter too — no horse-drawn carriages clipping past every two minutes or tourists taking selfies in the fountains.

It’s a great place you go when you need a break from the city centre buzz. Grab a coffee, take your time, and enjoy the crunch of leaves underfoot. If you’re into green spaces, it’s one of Seville’s most popular city parks that feels especially magical this time of year.

• 🕔 When: Anytime, but late afternoon light is gorgeous
• 📍 Where: Parque de María Luisa, just south of the Cathedral
• 💶 Cost: Free

2. Visit the Cathedral Without the Crowds

By November, the heat is gone and so are the queues. It’s the best time to visit Seville Cathedral if you want to actually enjoy it — no elbowing through tour groups, no sweating your way up the Giralda Tower.

Inside, it’s as jaw-dropping as ever: gold-leaf altars, towering columns, and the supposed tomb of Columbus (depending on who you ask). You can also time your visit for late afternoon and catch the stained glass glowing with that soft winter light.

• 🕔 When: Daily; late afternoon for fewer crowds
• 📍 Where: Avenida de la Constitución, city centre
• 💶 Cost: €11–16; rooftop tour around €20 extra
• 🔗 Book via Seville Cathedral’s official site

3. Experience a Candlelight Concert

These intimate candlelit gigs feature string quartets playing everything from Vivaldi to Coldplay, surrounded by hundreds of flickering candles in venues like Casa de Salinas or Hotel Alfonso XIII.

It’s the kind of evening out that feels special without trying too hard — ideal for a date night or just something different from the usual tapas and rooftop terraces. Shows change often, so check what’s on while you’re in town.

• 🕔 When: Evenings throughout November (dates vary)
• 📍 Where: Various venues across the city
• 💶 Cost: €20–45 depending on seating and location
• 🔗 Link: Book tickets via Fever

4. Eat Your Way Through the Vegan Tapas Route

No jamón, no problem. The Veggie Vuelta runs through November, with local bars and restaurants competing to create the best plant-based tapa. It’s a fun way to explore different neighbourhoods — and actually eat something that isn’t deep-fried or covered in pork.

Even if you’re not vegan, it’s worth trying a few stops. You’ll find everything from mushroom croquetas to seitan montaditos, and usually a few surprises too.

• 🕔 When: Mid to late November (dates TBC)
• 📍 Where: Across various bars in the city
• 💶 Cost: Tapas typically €3–4; many include a drink
• 🔗 Find out more on their Instagram page

5. Go to Jameson Connects for Music, Food & Fun

Jameson Connects: Seville 2025 is back on November 16, and it’s shaping up to be one of the biggest music events of the month. Held at Parque Isla Mágica, the one-day festival blends live concerts, a full-blown food truck zone, karaoke, and even a carousel — because why not?

It’s got a more laid-back, creative vibe than your typical mega-festival, and the crowd tends to be local, music-loving, and up for a good time. It’s all part of Jameson’s touring series of city takeovers — and Seville’s version definitely has the best setting.

• 🕔 When: Saturday, November 16, 2025
• 📍 Where: Parque Isla Mágica
• 💶 Cost: Tickets from €10; food and drinks extra
• 🔗 Coming soon

6. Get Inspired at OFFF Seville

OFFF Seville is a three-day creative festival running from November 27–29, and it’s where the city’s design, tech, and visual arts scenes all come together. Held at the Real Fábrica de Artillería, it mixes talks, workshops, and performances from international speakers — all focused on post-digital culture.

It’s a proper meeting point for designers, creatives, students, and anyone curious about how art and technology collide. Even if you’re not working in the industry, it’s a fun way to tap into something a bit different.

• 🕔 When: November 27–29, 2025
• 📍 Where: Real Fábrica de Artillería
• 💶 Cost: Tickets from €25; discounts available for students
• 🔗 Read the full programme on the OFFF Official Website

7. Ride an Electric Bike Now That It’s Not 40ºC

Let’s be honest: biking around Seville in August is a sweaty gamble. But in November? Ideal. The cooler weather makes it the perfect time to hop on an electric bike and cruise the city’s flat, bike-friendly streets without melting into the pavement.

You can go it alone or join a guided tour — either way, you’ll cover more ground than walking, and still get to stop off for photos, snacks, and random orange trees. Bonus points for looping around the riverside at sunset.

• 🕔 When: Mornings or late afternoons
• 📍 Where: Rentals all over the city; tours often start near the Cathedral
• 💶 Cost: Rentals from €20/3 hours; guided tours from €30
• 🔗 Check eBike availability here

9. Catch a Screening at the Seville European Film Festival

If you’re into cinema, SEFF is one of the best things to do in Seville in November. It’s a full week of screenings, premieres, Q&As, and retrospectives, all focused on contemporary European film — with everything from edgy indie stuff to beautifully shot period dramas.

Even if your Spanish isn’t perfect, many films are shown in the original language with subtitles (although subtitles will be in Spanish). The vibe is relaxed, tickets are affordable, and the venues (like Teatro Lope de Vega) are pretty stunning too.

• 🕔 When: November 7–15, 2025
• 📍 Where: Various venues across the city
• 💶 Cost: Individual tickets from €3; passes also available
• 🔗 Find out more through the official site

10. Take a Night Tour Through Seville’s Haunted Past

Seville’s got plenty of charm by day — but by night, it leans a little more… ghostly. Several companies run guided night tours through the city’s darker corners, telling stories of haunted convents, old legends, and strange things that supposedly happened right where you’re standing.

It’s not super theatrical or horror-movie stuff — just eerie enough to be fun. A good one to do after dinner, especially if you’re up for something a bit different from your typical sightseeing route. If you don’t fancy joining a tour, then explore some of Seville’s most haunted buildings by yourself.

• 🕔 When: Evenings, usually around 8–10 pm
• 📍 Where: Starts in the city centre (exact spot depends on the tour)
• 💶 Cost: Around €10–15; usually needs to be booked in advance
• 🔗 Discover Seville’s most haunted places here

11. Do a Cooking Class with Seasonal Andalusian Flavours

If you’re the type who likes to bring back more than fridge magnets, a Seville cooking class is a solid shout. November’s cooler weather means it’s actually pleasant to be near a hot stove, and seasonal ingredients like wild mushrooms, chestnuts, and local greens make their way into the mix.

Most classes are run by local chefs and include a market visit, a few tapas, and a generous pour of something drinkable. You’ll likely walk out full — and with a few recipes worth repeating at home.

• 🕔 When: Most days, usually late morning or early evening
• 📍 Where: Various kitchens around the centre or Triana
• 💶 Cost: From €50–75; includes food, drinks, and recipes
• 🔗 3.5-hour Spanish cooking class and Triana Market tour

12. Warm Up with a Flamenco Show

Flamenco hits differently in the colder months — the venues feel cosier, the energy sharper, and the whole thing just more intense. Whether it’s your first time or your tenth, catching a live flamenco show in November is a must.

There are plenty of options around the city, from small tablaos in Triana to more polished performances near Santa Cruz. And yes, you can absolutely pair it with a glass of red and pretend you’re in your own moody Spanish film.

• 🕔 When: Nightly, with most shows starting between 7–9 pm
• 📍 Where: All over the city; Triana and Santa Cruz have great options
• 💶 Cost: From €20–35; some include a drink or tapa
• 🔗 Discover more about the best flamenco shows in Seville

13. Take a Day Trip to Ronda and the White Villages

If you’ve got an extra day, then take an easy day trip from Seville. November is a great time to head out to Ronda and the surrounding Pueblos Blancos. The drive is beautiful — winding roads, olive groves, and tiny hilltop towns that look like they’ve been dropped out of a painting.

Ronda itself is the star, with its famous gorge and dramatic bridge, but villages like Zahara de la Sierra or Grazalema are worth the detour too. Cooler temps mean you can explore without overheating, and the crowds are thinner than in spring.

• 🕔 When: Best as a full-day trip
• 📍 Where: Around 2 hours by car from Seville
• 💶 Cost: Rental car from €35/day; organised tours from €60+
• 🔗 Read more about the Pueblos Blancos and Ronda full-day tour

14. Visit Palacio de las Dueñas (and Other Hidden Palaces)

Seville’s royal history isn’t just in the Alcázar. November is a great time to visit Palacio de las Dueñas, the former home of the Duchess of Alba — with its peaceful patios, tiled galleries, and walls full of art and family oddities. It feels more lived-in than grand, and that’s exactly the charm.

While you’re at it, this is also a good month for exploring other palace houses like Casa de Pilatos or Palacio de la Condesa de Lebrija — cooler weather makes wandering through courtyards and tiled salons feel far less exhausting.

• 🕔 When: Daily; late morning is ideal
• 📍 Where: Palacio de las Dueñas (near Feria), others scattered around the centre
• 💶 Cost: Around €10–12 per palace
• 🔗 Read more on the official site.

15. Duck Into a Museum If the Rain Hits

November doesn’t bring loads of rain — but when it does, you’ll want a solid backup plan. Luckily, Seville has a surprisingly good mix of museums and galleries that are perfect for a slow, culture-heavy afternoon.

Top picks? Museo de Bellas Artes for Spanish masters, CAAC (Centro Andaluz de Arte Contemporáneo) for edgier stuff in a former monastery, and the Museo de Artes y Costumbres Populares for old-school Andalusian life and traditions. 

If you’re into ceramics, fashion, or even archaeology, there’s more where that came from. You’ll find more ideas in our guide to Seville’s best museums and galleries — great for when the sky turns grey.

• 🕔 When: Most open from 10am–8pm (closed Mondays)
• 📍 Where: Scattered around the city; most are walkable from the centre
• 💶 Cost: Many are free or around €1.50–3; CAAC is free on certain days

Seville’s Weather in November

November in Seville feels like real autumn. You’ll still get sunny days and bright skies, but there’s a noticeable shift — locals start wearing jackets, cafés bring out the heaters, and the scent of roasted chestnuts hangs in the air.

It’s a comfortable month for walking, sightseeing, and day trips, especially early on. Rain becomes more likely toward the end of the month, though it rarely sticks around for long. The sun sets much earlier now, too, giving the city that slower, early-winter feel.

📌 At a glance:

● Highs: ~22 °C (72 °F) early, dropping to ~17 °C (63 °F)
● Lows: ~10 °C (50 °F)
● Rain: ~4–6 days
● Daylight: ~10 hours

What to Wear in November in Seville

November’s a mix — cool mornings, mild afternoons, and evenings where you’ll definitely want a layer. Unlike much of Europe, November is just the start of Seville’s winter season, so you probably won’t need that Arctic-grade thick winter coat, but you will want something more than a T-shirt, especially if you’re out after dark or doing early-day trips.

Think layers you can peel off as the sun comes out. Locals start wearing boots and proper jackets, but tourists can usually get by with a jumper and a decent midweight coat. It’s also when umbrellas start to reappear, so if you’ve got space, bring one just in case.

Forget the sandals — it’s proper shoe season now. Trainers or boots are better for cooler days and cobbled streets, especially if there’s any rain.

📌 Don’t forget to pack these items:

● Long trousers or jeans
● Midweight tops or light jumpers
● Jacket or coat (ideally rain-friendly)
● Comfortable closed shoes or boots
● Scarf or extra layer for evenings
● Small umbrella just in case

Accommodation in Seville in November

November is shoulder season in Seville — which means smaller crowds, better prices, and a little more breathing room when it comes to booking. Hotels that were packed in October start to ease up, and even the fancier places often drop their rates.

It’s a great time to stay somewhere central without blowing your whole budget. Santa Cruz and El Arenal are the best neighbourhoods to stay if you want to be close to the sights, while Alameda and Macarena feel more local and relaxed (and usually come with better deals).

If you’re in town for something like the film festival or OFFF, book ahead — those weekends can still fill up fast, especially near the venues.

📌 Accommodation tips:

● Mid-November rates are usually lower than high season rates

● Santa Cruz for charm, Alameda for bars + budget stays
● Look for heating — not all places have it, and nights can get chilly
● Good value spots: pensiones, boutique hotels, or quiet Airbnbs
● Favourites to check: Hotel Casa 1800, Hotel Gravina 51, Sacristía de Santa Ana
