Completely inclusive festival
More than 300 people will ensure the safety of the event and the operation of every detail in organizational matters. With the aim that music and culture can be enjoyed by all attendees, in addition, a series of inclusivity measures have been implemented in the event.
Once again, the Orange Point will be implemented to provide accompaniment and professional support to people with physical, sensory and intellectual disabilities, and to resolve any doubts in this regard.
