II Concentration of Giants with the Philips group The II Concentration of Giants organised by the Philips group on Saturday 27th was extraordinary. One of the most important events of the festival judging by the large number of people who gathered there. Right from the planting, which took place in the Silo site, the attendance was remarkable. Everyone wanted to get close and take a photo of the more than 40 giants from Centelles (Catalonia), Orkoyen (Navarre), Legazpia (Basque Country), Puente la Reina (Navarre), Benicássim (C. Valenciana), Ablitas (Navarre), Gallur (Aragon), Hernani (Basque Country), Murchante (Navarre), La Almozara (Aragon), San Adrián (Navarre), Lodosa (Navarre) and of course the hosts from Calahorra (La Rioja). The gathering at the Town Hall roundabout with the dances of each group was an extraordinary spectacle in which the image of dozens of giants was impressive in itself. The organization, together with the Eroski hypermarket, offered an aperitif before the parade, next to the Youth Center, to the hard-working participants who carry the structures of the giants. There were also, throughout the route, refreshment carts with cold drinks for the participants. [Calahorra-Saturday-27-08-2016-10:30h] www.lanoticia.es [email protected]
