This year's edition features a significant increase in participation, with 66 floats confirmed. The Councilor for Culture and Festivals, Sílvia Ripoll, noted that these figures far exceed last year's, driven by new groups joining the festivities and the event's growing reputation.
“"Roses has a Carnival that people love not only to watch but also to experience"
Key innovations include a new QR code system allowing the public to vote for the best costume, float, and choreography. Additionally, the Roses City Council has limited the popular Monday rice feast to 2,500 tickets to prioritize local carnival groups.
Regarding safety, the ban on alcohol consumption during the parades remains in place, supported by additional police officers from neighboring towns. The festival will also feature a wide range of musical performances and live radio broadcasts by RAC 1.
