Hundreds of residents gathered this morning at Casa de Andalucía in Benidorm, chaired by Raúl González, on the occasion of Andalusia Day, which is officially celebrated on February 28 and commemorates the referendum on the autonomous process that took place in this community. in 1980.
The event was attended by the mayor of Benidorm, Toni Pérez, who, precisely, holds the position of 'Andalusian of the Year' awarded by the Cultural Federation of Andalusia to the South of the Valencian Community.

The act has also had the presence of the Queens of Benidorm, Angélica Morenilla and Daniela Talavera, who have supported those of the Casa de Andalucía, Elia Romero and Maira Jiménez and their vice president, Joaquín Romero.

Throughout the morning, the sevillanas, tangos, tanguillos, and fandangos have allowed us to enjoy a meeting in which Andalusian gastronomy has reigned, its popular tapas and pinchos and which has reached its peak with a traditional stew that has made more one's.
