The Entroido de Cobres travelled to Bemposta (Portugal), and Viana do Bolo and Vilariño do Conso (Ourense)

May 2, 2024

The Entroido de Cobres continues to share its culture and tradition with other carnival traditions and masquerades.

On 24th February, it reached Bemposta, in the Mogadouro region of Portugal, where more than 50 carnival and masquerade groups from Spain, Portugal, Italy, and Bulgaria came together in the 4th International Meeting of Ancestral Rituals.

They paraded through the town streets, filling them with their colourful costumes and traditional dances, meeting with other groups previously known and with new ones, weaving cultural networks beyond the borders of our municipality.

On 27th and 28th April, the Entroido was in Viana do Bolo and Vilariño do Conso, taking part in the 9th Vibomask Festival, a great Iberian Masquerade that again projected the identity, history, and ethnographic richness of the territories that came together in this cultural event with their unique masks and costumes. The Entroido de Cobres paraded and shared its traditions with about one hundred groups.
