The Councilor for Culture and Festivities of the City of Lorca, Agustín Llamas, announced that the Cavalcade of Kings that will tour the streets of Lorca during the afternoon of January 5, will finally leave at 6 pm, instead of the time originally planned.

Llamas emphasized that "due to the number of extras and groups that will participate in this Cavalcade that will be absolutely spectacular, we decided to advance its start in half an hour, so that it leaves at 6 pm from Avenida Adolfo Suárez. That the reception in Plaza de España does not continue until very late and the children may be lying down before Their Majesties visit the homes of Lorca. "

Likewise, Llamas said that "as we announced a few days ago, we were reviewing security issues with the aim that the Cavalcade could approach the turn in the Cuesta de San Francisco with Plaza de Colón with total security for all the spectators, After having held several meetings since December 13 with the Union of Merchants and with representatives of the El Carmen Commercial Area, as we have already pointed out, and analyze the safety conditions and the size of the floats that will participate in The Cavalcade within the framework of the operational meeting of security and emergencies that are made for the organization of public events in the municipality, we are pleased to announce that the Cavalcade will run for its traditional course and will be performed in its entirety without having to omit the Presence of the attractive components that will make up the parade, for this will be installed protection elements in the turn that will allow to do it without the spectators invading the space.

Safety is the top priority in public shows and that is not negotiable.

Fortunately, after analyzing the different possibilities, we will be able to carry out the traditional route and that was suggested by the Union of Merchants, at the same time that we maintain the Cavalcade in all its extension.

We want to thank our Local Police, Municipal Emergency Services, Fire and Red Cross for their collaboration in finding solutions, especially considering the multiple circumstances that have had to attend to the consequences of the heavy rainfall in recent weeks. "

Lastly, Edil announced that "next week we will detail the content of this Cavalcade that will not leave anyone indifferent and will be remembered by all viewers for its content, size and spectacularity."
