Castelleres Celebrations in Mid-October
As October progresses, the casteller gangs of Catalonia are preparing for an intense weekend full of significant events. With the days of Castellers de Sants, Colla Jove dels Castellers de Sitges and Castellers de Sabadell on the horizon, attention is focused on the new constructions they hope to present.
Intensive preparations in Valls
In Valls, the members of the Old and Young gangs meet at their headquarters to work on the last details before the celebration of Santa Úrsula. The aim is to achieve a spectacular performance that maintains the prestige of the city as the birthplace of castles.
An International Journey: The Young Group in Brussels
The Colla Jove Xiquets de Tarragona, with renewed energy after the success in the Castles Competition, embarks on a trip to Brussels. There, they will sponsor the Mannekes, a new gang looking to make history with their first 6-story performance.
The Supermoon and the Kids of Granollers
The magic of the weekend began with a pillar of 4 performed by the Xics de Granollers under an impressive supermoon. The event, held at Roca del Vallès, symbolizes the gang’s continuous effort over the past five years.
Objectives and Expectations of the Groups
With November 1 in sight, gangs are gearing up for key performances. The Castellers de Vilafranca, after winning the 29th Castle Competition, seek to consolidate their constructions with a 3 and a 4 de 9 with lining, while the Minions of Terrassa intensify their rehearsals for the Fairs of Sant Narcís.
The Aspirations of the Castellers de Sabadell
The Castellers de Sabadell have set themselves the goal of trying for the 7 out of 8, a castle that they have not achieved for some time. With the 3 and 4 of 8 as support, expectations are high for their day.
A Weekend Full of Castelleres Activities
The weekend is full of activities, with several days scheduled throughout Catalonia. In Alcover, it is expected that the Xiquets de Reus and the Xiquets de Tarragona will present at least one castle of 8. At the same time, in other localities, gangs such as the Bordegassos of Vilanova and the Castellers of Esplugues are looking to consolidate their range of castles.
The Impact of the Colla Jove Xiquets de Tarragona
With a total of 200 members traveling to Brussels, the Colla Jove Xiquets de Tarragona will not only seek to make history with its sponsorship, but also to project its image internationally with various social activities.
Decisive essays in Valls
The Xiquets de Valls are preparing for a special rehearsal, designed to face the day of Santa Úrsula. This session is crucial to ensure that the 10 castles, without lining, are in the best possible condition.
Castellers Events Calendar
The weekend’s programming includes several outstanding performances, such as the presentation of the Mannekes in Brussels, days in Santa Coloma de Gramenet, and celebrations in various Catalan towns.
Details of the Days
The Castellers de Sants, the Minyons de Terrassa and other gangs are preparing performances that promise to be memorable, with the aim of approaching the highest level of their constructions.
