A promising start
With the end of the Carnival, the squares have been filled with color and energy, welcoming a new season of castles. A total of 21 groups debuted with innovative constructions, including the first structure of 8 of the year, made by the Capgrossos de Mataró. This start was marked by a total of 56 new features that have contributed a special brightness to the barometer, which still reflects winter.
The Capgrossos of Mataró at the helm
The Capgrossos de Mataró were the first to raise the 3de8, a castle that last year did not be presented until April. In addition, they have expanded their range with a 5de7 and 4de7, consolidating themselves as pioneers in this new stage.
Notable contributions from gangs
The Castellers de Barcelona have contributed their 3de7, with a remarkable female presence in the trunk. On the other hand, the Colla Castellera Jove of Barcelona has also presented a 3de7, but in its conventional version. The Minyons de Terrassa and the Castellers de Sabadell have started the season with mid -range castles, highlighting their 5de7. In addition, the Castellers de la Vila de Gràcia have added a Pde5 to their constructions.
Variety of castles and debuts
The Castellers de Sant Cugat presented a 7de7, while the Castellers de la Sagrada Familia have shown a 4de7 with a needle. The castellera gang on the left of the Eixample has debuted with a 3de7, while the Esperxats de l’Estany have opened their season with two castles of 7.
Debuts Notables
The Castellers de Cerdanyola have made a morning 3de7, a castle that last year they could not do until October. The Xicots de Vilafranca have presented three castles of 6 female, and the Castellers de Montcada and Reixac have started with a 2de6, improving their record of the previous year.
A barometer full of news
The rest of the groups, up to a total of 36, appear in the 2025 barometer with testimonial actions. This star barometer collects the three best constructions and the best pillar of each group, reflecting the potential that each group has at this time of the season.
A look at Futur
With this start of the season, the gangs are preparing to face new challenges and continue to build ambitiously. The monitoring of the barometer can be performed online through the website Barometrecasteller.blogspot.com, where you can see the evolution and achievements of each gang in real time.
