The event also included a solidarity stall for the Red Cross, allowing citizens to donate unused items.

Meanwhile, Cabanillas del Campo hosted its 17th edition of its second-hand market at the Plaza del Pueblo. This event featured more than 60 stalls offering a wide variety of goods, including toys, small appliances, tools, and vinyl records. Organized by the local City Council through the Youth Center, the market aims to encourage the reuse of products and remains a popular social activity in the municipality.
