Castellers de Vilafranca depart at 14.15 for Tarragona contest
The Castellers de Vilafranca will travel from Cal Figarot to Tarragona today at 14.15 for the XXX Concurs de Castells. The event is scheduled to begin at 16.00 at the Tarraco Arena. The departure point is Cal Figarot, the colla’s headquarters in Vilafranca del Penedès. Members travelling with the group are advised to arrive ahead of the 14.15 departure time and to monitor official channels for any last-minute updates. Although the current plan remains unchanged, the colla has urged members to stay alert to potential modifications via their official communications throughout the morning.
Event to feature high-level castells, followed by return dinner
The group aims to perform some of its most challenging structures, including the 3d10fm and potentially the 9d9 with folre, manilles, and puntals, according to statements made by cap de colla Àngel Grau. The colla has described this year’s contest as highly competitive. After the contest concludes, a return dinner will be held at Cal Figarot. The meal will serve as a gathering point for members, though no specific time has been set for its start, as it depends on the end of the event in Tarragona.
The key is to check messages right up to departure time. In a day with scheduled times, the last update may be the most important one.
Participants are reminded to verify any changes via the colla’s official app or social media channels before leaving.
