Many of the city councils in Maresem region have decided to suspend the traditional San Juan festival, to avoid crowds and mass celebrations.
The Sant Vicenç de Montalt City Council, among others, suspends the Sant Joan festival but offers fireworks for all the inhabitants.
The fireworks will be at 23:00, from the tower of the Hermanos Gabrielistes park and from the roof of the El Gorg Civic Center, so neighbors can enjoy them from their properties in San Vicenç.
This will be an atypical, special, different, but secure Sant Joan.
The beach of San Vicente will be closed from 9:00 pm on the 23rd until 8:00 am on the 24th as a preventive and security measure.
However, the beach bars will be able to carry out their usual activity, always guaranteeing the health regulations and respecting the capacity and the permitted occupation surfaces.
The mayor, Javier Sandoval “This is a night that brings together many people, we must be cautious and avoid any situation that may lead to crowds because health is a priority.”
