💼 What the programme involves
Candamo celebrates one of the most unique cultural events in Asturias every September, the CANDAMO 36-37 Historical Re-enactment Days that take place in Grullos, the capital of the council. Since 2011, and at the initiative of the Grupo Frente del NalEn Historical-Cultural Association, the town gs back in time to the turbulent years of the Spanish Civil War as if it were a true journey in a time machine.Historical reenactors who come from very different parts of the Spanish geography and even from abroad bring our ancestors to life to explain to us in an entertaining and above all didactic, but totally rigorous way, an event that marked the history of the 20th century.The main task of the volunteers will be helping to this festival. Before the festival starts, working with the actors, cleaning the area, setting the scenes and during the festival, assisting to the recreation and finally after the festival, helping to the deconstruct the scene, cleaning and organising the area.
