Asturian cider recognition and celebrations

Overview

Asturian cider culture has seen significant recognition through both international awards and local celebrations in Gijón. Initially, the region highlighted its craftsmanship via the 2026 Homemade Cider Contest during Cider Week, alongside international success for Llagares Valverán’s ‘Valverán 20 Manzanas’, which earned a gold medal as the best ice cider at the World Cider Awards.

Following these accolades, the 35th Fiesta de la Sidra Natural in Gijón established a new world record for simultaneous cider pouring. At Poniente Beach, 10,385 people participated in the attempt, surpassing the previous record of 9,833 set the year prior.
