Following the cancellation of the Nits Daurades festival closing events on August 15 due to a red weather alert, the Salou City Council has approved a motion requesting that the Generalitat de Catalunya establish standardized and homogeneous guidelines for municipalities facing extreme weather. 

The council seeks clear protocols to provide legal certainty when deciding to cancel large-scale outdoor events or restrict mobility. While the decision to activate local civil protection measures was validated by regional services, officials emphasized that prioritizing public safety is a municipal responsibility.
