The 33rd Historical-Cultural Colloquiums of Campo Arañuelo are set to return from 16 to 26 November at the Concha Foundation in Navalmoral de la Mata. This year marks a significant increase in participation, with eleven entries submitted for consideration, nearly double the usual number. This surge highlights a growing interest in researching and sharing the history of the region.
The jury has praised the overall quality of the presentations, which promise to shed light on new aspects of the history and heritage of Navalmoral and its surroundings from various perspectives. The colloquiums will feature a total prize fund of €4,000, including a first prize of €1,500, a general runner-up prize of €800, an additional runner-up prize of €500 sponsored by the Concha Cultural Foundation, and four participation prizes of €300 each for selected speakers who do not receive the main awards.
Sessions will take place in the auditorium of the Concha Foundation, with the programme commencing on Monday, 16 November, and concluding on Thursday, 26 November, with the final presentation, closing ceremony, and award presentation.
