The city of Tarragona celebrated its iconic Craftsmanship Parade this February 15th, a highlight of the Carnival season that drew thousands of spectators to the city center.

The parade turned the streets of Tarragona into a vibrant display of music and creativity. After months of preparation, local troupes finally showcased their elaborate costumes and choreographed routines to a massive crowd that had gathered along the route since early morning.
The event's success was uncertain until the very last moment due to severe weather. Strong winds in the preceding days had forced the cancellation of several other festivities, raising doubts about the parade's safety. Ultimately, the conditions improved enough for the celebration to proceed as planned.
Despite a drop in temperature and persistent gusts, the festive atmosphere remained high. Families and groups of friends lined the sidewalks of the Tarragonès capital to witness one of the most popular and traditional events of the local cultural calendar.
