The plenary hall of the Amposta City Council hosted the presentation of the event, which will bring together 23 towns from across Spain. Mayor Adam Tomàs recalled that Amposta's candidacy was initiated years ago and that the municipal government is committed to fully supporting the sector.
“"To stand by the association and the bullfighting sector to make possible a congress of extraordinary quality."
Tomàs highlighted the budgetary effort and investments promoted, such as the construction of new fixed corrals on Torreta street, a project already awarded and expected to be completed before the congress. He also claimed Amposta as a benchmark in improving the bull festival, both in terms of safety for people and animals.
The president of the Amposta Bou Capllaçat Cultural Association and vice-president of the Spanish Federation of Toro de Cuerda, Adolfo Lleixà, described the act as the starting signal for the National Congress, thanking the involvement of the poster's author, Lluís ’Millagui’, and remembering Marc Fornós for his decisive contribution to the project.
“"This poster presentation event is the starting signal for the National Congress."
The poster, created by Lluís ’Millagui’, displays iconic elements of Amposta such as the bridge, the bull as a symbol of strength and living tradition, and the rope, which represents the Ebro Delta and the river, as a metaphor for the path and the roots of the town.
