The showcase included historical reenactment activities that introduced the public to Roman and Castro culture. The expedition comprised 173 participants from 16 associations linked to Arde Lucus, representing around a thousand people. The delegation also included the mayor of Lugo, Elena Candia, and councilors Damián Carballo and Agustín Gallego, who were in character for the occasion.
The program of activities began with a parade through the fairgrounds and a demonstration of the traditional queimada ritual, added at the request of the INTUR organization. Subsequently, the entourage moved to the center of Valladolid with a parade from Colón Square to the Main Square, where they were received by the city's mayor, Jesús Julio Carnero.
“"During the meeting, a demonstration of the charge between Castro and Roman warriors took place, and as part of the institutional reception, the mayor of Lugo presented the Valladolid mayor with two representative gifts of the cultures featured in Arde Lucus: a Roman dagger and a Celtic trisquel."
Participation in INTUR also served to present the next edition of Arde Lucus, scheduled for June 17, 18, 19, and 20, 2027, and to promote this celebration beyond Galicia. The Lugo City Council expressed gratitude for the reception in Valladolid and recognized the involvement of the participating associations, whose work is essential to keeping the festival alive.
