The human tower groups (colles) Minyons de Terrassa and Castellers de Terrassa utilized their recent performances in Manresa and Sant Jaume dels Domenys, respectively, to consolidate their seven-story structures.

The Minyons de Terrassa performed on Palm Sunday in Manresa, where they focused their day on practicing and solidifying seven-story castells. After executing two 'pilars de quatre' (four-person pillars), they began their display with a 3 de 7 (three-person tower of seven levels). In the second round, they successfully tackled the 4 de 7 (four-person tower of seven levels) and concluded the castell rounds with a 5 de 7 (five-person tower of seven levels), finishing the performance with the 'vano de cinc' (a set of five pillars).
The 'malva' (purple) group will pause its activities until Wednesday, April 8, when rehearsals will resume. Their next performance is scheduled for Saturday, April 11, at six in the afternoon in Terrassa, as part of the Culturassa festival.
Meanwhile, the Castellers de Terrassa traveled to Sant Jaume dels Domenys last weekend, a town that had not hosted a castellera event since 2012. The 'blauturquesa' (blue-turquoise) group participated in the Diada de Quarts Amunt, organized by Domenys Ràdio, starting with a 'pilar de quatre' (four-person pillar) unloaded in front of the Town Hall.
In the first round, the Castellers de Terrassa unloaded a solid 5 de 7, their second of the year and consecutive. Subsequently, they competently completed the 4 de 7 amb pilar (four-person tower of seven levels with an inner pillar). In the third round, they unloaded the 4 de 7 and concluded the day with a 'pilar de cinc' (five-person pillar) and two 'pilars de quatre' as a farewell.
