On this Friday night, with the presence of mayor Francisco Azcué and the president of Inmigrantes Unidos de Concordia Yamile Latour, the XXXI Provincial Immigrant Festival was inaugurated. This Saturday the Queen will be chosen and on Sunday the traditional parade will take place.
When addressing those present, the Mayor highlighted that beyond the festival itself and the importance it has for Concordia and the province, “there is something that transcends, such as our history and our immigrants who arrived in this land leaving us a very important legacy, which are the values that we must promote today: effort, merit, standing up to adversity, uniting and moving forward, bringing out the best in each one, and that is something we must take care of”.
For her part, Yamile Latour thanked first of all the support of the Municipality of Concordia, CODESAL and the Provincial Government, remarking that this new edition of the traditional festival is reached “with great enthusiasm and sacrifice. We hope that in these days you enjoy our cultures, our food courts and fundamentally what our roots are, which have different origins but which make up this melting pot of races as we are in the great Argentine people”.
Once the ribbon was cut and the inauguration took place, mayor Azcué together with officials and the Queen Andrea Martina Peñafort Fruncieri were touring the different food courts of each of the communities.
The vice-mayor Magdalena Reta de Urquiza; provincial senator Cielo Espejo; the Government Secretary Luciano Dell´Olio, councilors and representatives of the different communities of our city were present.
