"It is curious that, just the day after the summer cultural programming that tries to support the cultural groups and artists of Yecla, and in the same way, reactivate the cultural programming of the city, the PSOE came out asking for a program to support local groups.A reactivation that also arises in the central area of ??the municipality with the intention of contributing to the revitalization of trade and hospitality.And from prudence in order to guarantee, as far as possible, the health security of all attendees.We would all like to return to normality as soon as possible, but in the current situation we must be cautious, attend to reality and take extreme precautions.In the request made by the PSOE, an interest in going out to the media is perceived more than a serious proposal.In the first place, because it mixes the games of the Department of Celebrations with the activities of the Department of Culture, without any criteria.When he talks about theater groups, as it happens to other associations, he shows that they have not even contacted them.From the Department of Culture we have done it, and they have told us that they prefer to wait for autumn, waiting to be able to recover the programming at the Concha Segura Theater.But above all, he shows his ignorance when he talks about the “Yecla Jazz Festival”.This festival has its own personality and date in the national calendar, that is not achieved by improvising its programming at the last minute.Moving it means that artists who have a pre-reservation date, overlap with other festivals or even, that may not coincide with the national broadcast of the "Discópolis" program on Radio 3, which is the greatest promotional tool, can be lost.
of the festival and the City of Yecla.But also, the Jazz Festival has nothing to do with the games of the fair, since it has its own game in the municipal budget.All this whenever the health and economic situation allow it, because before making big events, we have to guarantee the safety of the people, and if unfortunately the economic situation does not recover, for the Government Team the priority of the parties of Celebrations will be to reinforce social services and meet the most basic needs of citizens.
