Salou officially launched the 2026 edition of the Nits Daurades on Saturday, 1 August 2026, with the institutional opening ceremony held in the gardens of Xalet Torremar.
Salou City Council and the Municipal Tourism Board have launched a large-scale operation to distribute a total of 67,000 certified eclipse glasses for the safe observation of the solar eclipse on 12 August.
Salou City Council has once again highlighted the need for Catalonia to promote a specific funding model for tourist municipalities. This was one of the main demands that Mayor Pere Granados conveyed this Thursday, 30 July 2026, to the Government Delegate of the Generalitat of Catalonia in Tarragona, Lucía López Cerdán.
The railway line divided Salou into two halves, creating a physical and social barrier in the heart of the town. Following the removal of the railway tracks, Salou faces the greatest urban transformation opportunity in its recent history: the Civic Axis.
