The celebration was hosted by journalist Javi Nieves and featured musical performances by artists such as Gipsy Kings, Hakuna Group Music, Liz Mitchell of Boney M, and DJ El Pulpo, entertaining attendees throughout the day.
“"This announcement is especially beautiful and significant for the city."
During the event, the Cardinal Archbishop of Madrid, José Cobo, read a letter sent by Pope Leo XIV to the participants. In his message, the Pontiff confirmed his intention to hold an event in Cibeles during his upcoming visit to Madrid, scheduled between June 6 and 9.
