End of the party at the Fires de Sant Narcís in Girona with the smell of gunpowder and the joy of the people at the spectacle of the fireworks, as seen in the Photos of the Readers of La Vanguardia.
Girona has closed the Fires de Sant Narcís program with the traditional fireworks display. The first deputy mayor and Councilor for Culture, Quim Ayats, considers that these parties have been a "success" because "they have been very well attended."
This year, the Fires have once again opted for popular culture and decentralization with programming with a greater presence in the neighborhoods.
"These are two bets that we started last year and that we wanted to reinforce to make a more participatory festival," Ayats highlighted.
As for incidents, "there have been fewer than last year," he assured. This year's programme, which started on October 27 with the parade of the giants and big heads and the proclamation, has included more than 200 acts.
