He added that not only does the festival showcase the gastronomy of each country but also serves to promote the culture and traditions of them. He also called the event an ideal occasion to meet up and highlighted that many visitors tend to gather around their country of origin.
Mayor Rosa Cardona congratulated the organisers for their hard work in organizing the event which she said brings together half the world in a single stretch of avenue, allowing the visitor to move from country to country in just a few minutes. She also stressed the multiculturalism of Xàbia and how the international festival makes it very obvious how everyone has learnt to live together in the town.
