Festive atmosphere in a town square in El Morell during the local festival.

The municipality of El Morell has experienced a first weekend of local festivities marked by high public attendance and the recovery of historical traditions.

The program kicked off on Friday with the opening of a new meeting space in the Town Hall garden, combining live music and gastronomy. The day included a night walk and the traditional 'víbria' act, which signals the start of the festive activities.
One of the highlights took place on Saturday with the return of the human tower display to the Church Square, an event that had not been held in the municipality for eighteen years. The event featured the Xiquets de Tarragona and the Colla Vella dels Xiquets de Valls.
The cultural agenda has also included the children's fire run and the Ball de Sant Miquel by the small devils. For the coming days, the program includes scientific outreach shows, outdoor cinema, concerts, and the traditional cycling race.
