Puerto Real City Council spends 5,300 euros on empty university event

The Puerto Real City Council recently organized a university welcome event at Plaza Rafael Alberti that resulted in virtually no attendance from the target student population. Despite the municipality hosting a university campus, the event, which featured four DJs and an animator for a six-hour duration, saw only small groups of minors arrive late in the evening.

Public procurement records indicate the event cost 5,300 euros. The lack of turnout highlights ongoing challenges regarding the local nightlife and leisure offerings in Puerto Real, which residents note often requires traveling to neighboring towns like El Puerto, Cádiz, or Chiclana for entertainment.
