Portugalete will have one more day of festivities

The official schedule of the sanrokes will start on August 13

It has been decided this way because it is a Saturday, and since the traditional date for the festive start falls on a Sunday.

However, the txupinazo, like every year, will be launched on the 14th.

The honor of being the town crier has gone to Portuguese film producer Ivan Miñambres, who has won 3 Goya awards, and the Txupinera, as representative of the crews, will be Eneritz Mancisidor, well known in the town for her intense work from Berriztasuna Taldea.

June Sádaba, Spanish Judo champion in the children’s category, will become the txupinera txiki.

Lastly, the figure of a flagman from the 1970s has been created, which will embody a much-loved Portuguese man, “Pepillo”, the architect of whatever txupin is thrown at parties.
