The exhibition and public voting will take place on Saturday, October 24, from 4:30 p.m., at the Virgen del Carmen Cultural Center, with free admission.

The Flor de Sal from the Torrevieja salt flats, anchovies, tuna, and bonito will share the spotlight with traditional dishes such as cocido con pelotas (stew with meatballs), gazpacho marinero (seafood gazpacho), cuttlefish "sangochao" (a seafood stew), and rice with anchovies. Restaurants, restaurateurs, producers, and professionals from Torrevieja will participate in a program that also includes sweet treats, workshops for children, and a contest for three stays in Torrevieja.

The initiative is part of the Public Employment Offers for 2024, 2025, and 2026 to fill a total of 16 caretaker positions. The City Council has presented the proposal to the Municipal Diversity Council and has requested the collaboration of local associations to facilitate its dissemination and support applicants throughout the process.

The service includes the maintenance of the facilities, as well as a permanent on-call service to attend to emergencies 24 hours a day, all year round. The contract will guarantee the conservation, repair and proper functioning of buildings, courts, swimming pools, electrical networks, air conditioning, plumbing, landscaping, security systems and the rest of the elements of the municipal sports facilities.

Visitors will be able to tour the classrooms, study areas, and the rooftop university agora, as well as learn about the academic programs offered by UA, UMH, and UNED for the 2026/27 academic year. Places for the visits are limited, and prior registration is required through the form provided by the City Council.

The first section runs from La Sal Street to the Palangre Curve, with Habaneras Avenue remaining open to allow traffic to continue along Mariano Ruiz Cánovas. During the works, access to homes, garages, shops, restaurants, and the beach itself will be guaranteed. The redevelopment of the Los Locos Beach promenade has an allocated budget of €8,592,352 (VAT included) and an execution period of 18 months, with completion scheduled for January 1, 2028. Due to the works, Line 8 CENTRO-LA MATA of Torrevieja's urban transport system will modify its outbound route, in the direction from the center of Torrevieja towards La Mata.

The work in Mar Azul and Lo Ferrís represents an investment of €480,000 and includes the resurfacing of 22,289 square meters, approximately 200 linear meters of new pedestrian routes, and 40 accessibility improvements. These works are part of Lot 1 of the municipal contract for resurfacing and improving pedestrian routes and accessibility, which covers 171,273 square meters and up to 57 streets and avenues in the southern area of Torrevieja.

Attendance will be free until capacity is reached and will allow for addressing both personal well-being and the balanced and responsible use of new Artificial Intelligence tools

Next to the “Cecilio Gallego” pavilion, a multi-purpose sand area will be planned for beach soccer, beach volleyball, and beach handball. The estimated investment for the execution of the future works amounts to 3,025,000 euros (VAT included), while the drafting of the project has a base budget for bidding of 81,000 euros.

The contract has been awarded for 77,129.55 euros (VAT included), of which 51,419.70 euros correspond to the drafting of the project and 25,709.85 euros to the Project Management and Health and Safety Coordination. The action will aim to recover a comfortable and safe route for pedestrians and cyclists, promoting sustainable mobility and highlighting the environmental and landscape heritage of the surroundings.

The project will completely renovate sidewalks and pavements, improve accessibility, organize traffic and parking, renew the lighting network, and bury the existing overhead telecommunications networks. This first phase covers the area between Pañol Street and Rosa Mazón Avenue, including Obenque, Estay, Ballesstringe, Ciaboga, Gabia, and Calabrote Streets, as well as part of Delfina Viudes Avenue.
