Pacs del Penedès bid farewell to La Capelleta de l’EVA on Sunday, October 18th, with a festival combining music, popular culture, and the planting of an apple tree, before the project embarked on its first journey towards La Segarra.

The celebration began at the Centre Cívic Alcalde Joan Marrugat Bolet, from where participants proceeded to La Salzereda, accompanied by accordion music. Upon arrival, an apple tree was planted as a symbol of the Eva en Veu Alta project and the bond La Capelleta leaves in the municipality.
The event also featured the reading of the Romanço de La Capelleta and an apple peeling contest, which added a festive and participatory touch to the gathering.
The Town Council has expressed gratitude for the collaboration of the Coral El Circell and all those who made the celebration possible, fostering an atmosphere of fellowship and appreciation for culture.
