The human tower group of Rubí, one of the most deeply rooted organizations in the city, is commemorating its 30th anniversary this year. Its president, Anna Yepes, highlighted the importance of this milestone, reviewing the entity's history and the main challenges they face now and in the future.
Meanwhile, the city is already preparing for major festivities. The 2026 Carnival will officially begin on Fat Thursday, February 12, and will recover the emblematic Ball de Mantons (Shawl Dance) at the Casino. Furthermore, the Gitanes al Carrer (Street Gypsy Dances) have closed registrations with a record participation of 44 groups.
Rubí's local history was also highlighted this week, with historian Jordi Vilalta recalling the figure of the monarchist mayor Joan Monmany.
Regarding public services, activity at the Rubí Courts, located in the Plaça de Pere Esmendia, had to be suspended for three days due to a water leak that severely damaged the facilities. Separately, Rubí has joined the new T-Social, a transport pass integrating socially subsidized tickets into the contactless validation system.
