Cervera experienced the peak moment of the Aquelarre with the run of the Mascle Cabró, on the Cal Racó stage, before the ecstasy of a dedicated audience, who enjoyed bravely with the fire and the 350 kilos of gunpowder burned over the weekend.
The 47th edition of the fire festival, the witches and the esotericism of the Westlands has been multitudinous and has gathered some 35.000 people, that they did not want to miss an Aquelarre that has turned the capital of La Segarra into a real hell.
The party has renewed its convening power after the pandemic and in the words of the head priest of Cervera, Jan Pomés, "we had more people than ever before, since the beginning of the week and, especially, Friday and Saturday nights. The city has been full and we demonstrate the capacity of attraction from the Terres de Ponent with audiences from all over the country". Pomés also highlighted the "great involvement of the group of entities and the residents of Cervera with the party, who have been involved so that the Aquelarre has been a real success".
The most infernal night
The most infernal night of the Aquelarre began on Saturday at 11 of the night with the lighting of the University with the square full to the brim and the fire parade with the participation of the Ball of Devils of Vilanova i la Geltrú. Already in Cal Racó, the Ball de Diables de Cervera Carranquers took over, that accompanied the appearance of the Male Goat until he met Lilit, the goddess who fled from Adam making the transit from heaven to hell. The most awaited moment coincided with a third act in which the Male Cabró was the protagonist of the run completed with the final Foqueral.
