CARNIVAL FILLS PILAR STREETS WITH COLOUR

What a great success was the children’s carnival, in attracting hundreds of children and revitalizing trade over the weekend in Pilar de la Horadada.

The wonderful costume colours and the high spirits of all the participants filled the streets throughout the weekend.

The joy was particularly evident on Saturday morning when all of the activities were aimed at the children, with painting workshops, masks, costumes and a very popular bouncy castle.

And then on Sunday there was the parade that marched along Calle Mayor to the accompaniment and rhythm of Muni’s Band with the assistance of the Municipal School of Modern Dance directed by Gertrudis Andreo.

We were also entertained by la Asociación Motoclub 12+1, the Club Ciclista Horadada and the members of Vamos de Calle and Rhythm Bright the performance of which brought up the rearguard of the parade which ended in the church square.

Following the parade the square became the enclosure for a grand party at which children and adults enjoyed a fun day with music, dancing, and a costume contest, with prizes awarded to the best adult, child, group, best family and best makeup.

The councillor of festivities, Asunción Sánchez, said that she was delighted by the success of the carnival which had provided a great boost to everyone in the town, children, adults and of course the traders.
