Almeria Prepares the ‘Most Magical’ Christmas With Nearly 200 Activities For All Ages Until January 5th
About two hundred proposals for leisure, culture, theater, music, entertainment, lights, market, ice rink, sports, Nativity scenes and a long etcetera. A month, from December 1 to January 5, to live Christmas with all the enthusiasm it deserves and that this year will spread its wings under the name of ‘Magic Almeria, It’s Christmas’.
This was revealed that morning by the mayor of Almeria, María del Mar Vázquez, accompanied by the Councilor for Culture, Traditions and Major Festivals, Diego Cruz, an area that coordinates a choral program in a transversal way, also by the president of the Port Authority, Rosario Soto, and by representatives of the Cajamar companies, which provides its sponsorship, and the collaborators Grupo Caparrós and CASI.
“Christmas is a positive state of mind that is shared by everyone. It is probably the time of the year that is most eagerly awaited by more Almerians of all ages. It is a special time that is filled with proposals, invitations, meetings and opportunities for celebration with family and friends,” said the mayor, thanking all the entities that have made such an extensive program possible with proposals of all kinds and formats.
“The program is full of activities for all tastes, spread over numerous spaces in the city and with the aim of generating a fun, healthy and family atmosphere that is enjoyed in the street, in the hotel industry, in shops, in museums and in scenic spaces,” Vázquez detailed.
After a concert by the Municipal Band on the 1st and the ballet ‘Swan Lake’ on the 4th in the Auditorium, the great official premiere of the Christmas season will be the switching on of the ornamental lighting, which this year will be with a light and sound show with the music of the DJ ‘Don Fluor’. “And as a novelty, and attending to the proposals of the merchants, whom once again I want to thank for their collaboration with the City Council, in this case it will be in the Plaza de la Catedral. On December 5, at 7 p.m.” The special lighting of the Cathedral Square, which includes a large tunnel of light and sound, will have daily passes at 7, 8 and 9 p.m.
