This weekend, thousands of visitors attended the last edition of the Lluèrnia festival, a celebration of fire and light in Olot, which has now concluded after fifteen successful years.
The festival took place on 6 and 7 November, showcasing around thirty installations that illuminated the capital of the Garrotxa region. Key locations such as the Hospicio, the main square, the Firal, the bullring, Clarà square, and Catalunya square featured prominently in this final event, with installations created by both local and external artists.
The decision to end the festival was made by the organising team, primarily composed of volunteers. However, the local council has expressed its intention to develop a new initiative that will capture the essence of Lluèrnia under a different name and format. Plans are already underway for this new festival, which is expected to be realised by 2027.
