During the last days the agents of the municipal Tourism area were sending all the information of the Festa do Pulpo and the commemorative poster of this 52 edition, by the four cardinal points of the globe, mainly to the Galician centers spread across the five continents. This year the distribution of information reached more than a thousand destinations, since every year there are more Galician, cultural and gastronomic centers, groups and groups, which are interested in the Carballiñesa festival, recognized of national tourist interest and one step away from having The International Tourist Interest Award.
Among the most curious destinations to which this information came, we can highlight the House of Galicia in Nairobi (Africa), the Galician Association of Sydney (Australia), the Spanish Society of La Nacional de New York, La Peña de Galicia of the CEOC in Hollywood, or the association of Spanish residents in Tierra de Fuego in Ushuaia.
In addition, all the Galician centers in Europe and, of course, in Central and South America, where the largest number are found, highlighting among these those in Argentina and Cuba.
The Festa do Pulpo is present in each of these Galician centers, where they even have a large collection of posters they have been receiving in all these years, also using the information submitted by the city council to include it in their publications.
It is one more proof of the interest that this party arouses, as well as of the need to have that seal that distinguishes it as of international tourist interest since, in fact, it has it, although not yet officially.
