Is there any information regarding the fiestas of the moors and christians. I've been looking online to see if it is cancelled this year or not ? To no avail 🙈. 

Thank you

Why does Spain have these celebrations?

Without going into the history & Spanish traditions, have a look at:

I was thinking more about cultural appropriation.

I'm still not sure 🙈. They are advertising it on santa pola tourism?   I suppose I will just see next week.   Surely this can't be right?
