Last meetings of the year: Santiago, Lisbon and Salceda de Caselas.

December 30, 2024

After the summer break, the Entroido de Cobres resumed its agenda in Santiago de Compostela and Lisbon, and ended the year travelling to Salceda de Caselas.

The first post-holiday meeting took place on 7th September in Santiago de Compostela where, like every year, we took part in the Parade of Traditional Entroidos of Galicia held by the Galician Regional Government. The Entroido de Cobres went through the streets of Santiago de Compostela, starting and finishing in the praza do Obradoiro, where thousands of tourists could enjoy the performances of the various groups.

On 21st November, we travelled to Lisbon for the 16th International Iberian Masquerade Parade, where groups from Spain, Portugal, Greece and Italy were represented by a total of 32 groups.

The parade started at the Praça do Município following Rua da Prata and Rossio, finally returning to the square where it started – the main and most famous square in Lisbon, where thousands of tourists met this outburst of colours, music, and dance.

And to end the year, we travelled to Salceda de Caselas on 28th  December, to the 6th Meeting of Ranchos and traditional dances, to support our colleagues of the Entroido Rancho Tradicional A Feira. There were spaces for the participating groups to meet, and the Entroido was able to dance in a tent beautifully lit by the Christmas lights.
