What Can You Expect from Expat Life in Seville?

Expats can enjoy a well-balanced life of beauty, energy, and history in Seville. The Plaza de España, historical palaces, and intricate churches provide a stunning backdrop as you build your new life. Culture lovers will feel right at home with the museum of fine arts and Teatro de la Maestranza opera house while party goers will look forward to the Seville fair and the bright flamenco dresses of the Feria de Abril. Sports fans will also find plenty to occupy their time, with basketball games taking place at Palacio Municipal De Deportes San Pablo and soccer matches at Estadio Benito Villamarín and Estadio Ramón Sánchez-Pizjuán. Art, sport, theater, festivals, and nightlife are all available for those who are looking forward to a busy social life in Seville. With the recent recession affecting most of Europe, job searching is competitive in Seville and proficiency in the Spanish language is essential. You'll find an easier path into the job market if your current employer has offices in the city. Prominent industries include telecommunications, research into renewable energy, engineering, and manufacturing. Many expats find work teaching the English language but the strongest industry is tourism, where hotels, bars, and guide companies are willing to employ expats fluent in Spanish.
