Torrevieja’s Councillor for Tourism, Rosario Martínez, accompanied by the president of the Association of Hospitality Companies of Torrevieja and Comarca, José Ignacio Pastor, announced that this year they will have a new and innovative stand design, which will be representative of the tradition and essence of Torrevieja.

There will be space for a general information point, tasting area, and there will also be screens that show the presentations and tastings and the most traditional products of Torrevieja.
