Gines already has its Ninfos and Pregonero for the 2027 Carnaval

Carmen Chaparro Mora and Carlos Maestre Vázquez will be the Ninfos of the Gines Carnival 2027, and José Manuel Gil Buiza will give the pregón. This has been announced by the Town Council of the town, which places the three as people closely linked to the celebration from different fronts. The choice was settled in a vote held on Thursday, November 5 at the headquarters of the La Cáscara de Gines association, in the Parque Municipal Concejala Dolores Camino. It was attended by the outgoing Ninfos and pregón speaker, two representatives of each local carnival group, the winners of the 2026 Carnival Costume and Float Contests, the association itself and the Town Council. The mayor, Romualdo Garrido, attended the event. The event was completed with the first Carnival Gathering «Chicharrones con Cáscara», organized by the Consistory and La Cáscara and open to all audiences, at which attendees tasted chicharrones. The portal already reported on October 28 that this gathering is born with the intention of being established every year as the start of the Carnival and a meeting point for carnival-goers, with the election of the Ninfos and the Pregonero as a fixed part.

The 2027 edition marks the 40th anniversary of the Gines Carnival. According to the Town Council, the opening gala will open the celebration on February 5 or 6. The rest of the calendar is already underway. The portal reported on October 31 that the Gines Carnival Groups Contest (CECAG) accepts registrations from groups of any origin until January 15. The preliminary phase will be played in the week of February 11 to 14 and the Grand Final is set for Friday, February 19, entirely at the El Tronío theater.
