The meeting held between the Ministry of Health and Fecam to address the celebration of Christmas events ended up urging the municipalities to send their Christmas programs to the Ministry of Health, with the definition of formats and contingency plans in order to evaluate them , and authorize, or not, its implementation. Given this response, the Santa Cruz City Council, which has been the most belligerent in this matter, is clear about what its proposal will be and it is none other than to present its plan A. “Santa Cruz, as soon as possible, will send to Fecam and the General Directorate of Public Health the request for the reception of the Three Kings, as well as the one for the celebration of the parade, in its traditional route ”. This was confirmed to DIARIO DE AVISOS by the mayor of Fiestas, Alfonso Cabello.
As detailed, “the instruction in which the Autonomous Party Organization works is to register the request for the different Christmas events, not yet delivering the contingency plan, because we understand that it is not necessary to do so until 20 days before the celebration. of the first of the acts, so we will deliver a draft of it “.
Cabello defends that “if yesterday the conditions were in place for Tenerife to play a game in their stadium, today we understand that they are also given, and in that line we are going to present our request.” “With regard to the parade,” he continued, “we understand that there are also circumstances for its celebration, and we understand that, in the coming days, it will be the Government that will tell us to what extent or with what indications we would have to modify our approach ”.
Program
What Santa Cruz is going to send to Public Health looks a lot like celebrating Christmas before the pandemic. “The program has among its landmarks such traditional acts such as the Lo Divino tour, the celebration of the craft market or that of different theatrical and musical performances in different spaces of the city,” explained Cabello. Regarding the celebration of markets, “we understand that with the decree in force they can be celebrated with a perimeter closure, registering the people who enter, with the obligation to wear a mask, and a limit of 750 people.” Added to all this is the celebration of many small events throughout the city.
The mayor insisted that “the reception at the stadium meets the requirements that are demanded of us, but the reality is that, to this day, in the Heliodoro they do not occur, such as temperature taking or traceability. The only difference is the minors, but nobody knows how many go to the games ”.
