The 30th Regional Giants Gathering of Vallès Oriental and Occidental took place on Sunday, November 8th in Canovelles, bringing together a total of 23 groups and over 80 giant figures. The event, organized by the Colla Gegantera de Canovelles, filled the town's streets.
The day featured a 'plantada' (display) of giants, a parade through the streets, and traditional performance dances. Among these were the Balla Vallès, symbolizing the symbolic handover of the regional giant capital title, and the Bandalada, which proclaimed Cisqueta as the 2026 Vallès 'Pubilla' (honorary representative). A joint dance was also performed with all the 'gegantes' who have held the title of Pubilla del Vallès throughout history.
Photographs of the gathering, available on the Canovelles City Council's Flickr album, capture the highlights of this edition, which made Canovelles the focal point for the Vallès giant community.
