The Plaça de les Cols in Tarragona was packed for an intense 'casteller' day during the Sant Magí Festival. The city's 'collas' demonstrated a high level, aiming to surpass their limits and elevate the 'castells' category.
The Xiquets de Tarragona had a notable performance, successfully completing the 4d9f, their third of the season, and the 7d8, their trusted choice. They also achieved the 4d8 for the first time at Sant Magí, a historic feat for the 'colla'.
The Colla Castellera de Sant Pere i Sant Pau presented their best version, completing the 4d8a and debuting the 5d8, the third in their history. These performances showcase their mastery in the eight-and-a-half-story range.
Meanwhile, the Xiquets del Serrallo strived for history, aiming for their first 8-story 'clàssica'. They successfully completed the 3d8, their second 8-story 'castell' of the day, and the 4d8, marking a turning point for the 'colla'.
The Jove de Tarragona set ambitious challenges, attempting the 5d9f, which ultimately had to be dismantled due to accumulating movements. However, they managed to complete the first 'gamma extra' (special category) of the day with the 2d9fm, demonstrating their capability in complex 'castells'.
