Fulgencio Gil advances that the Center of Fairs and Congresses of Santa Quiteria will add three new annual appointments: Mediterranean Expocampo, LeisureTur and DeporLorca (16/05/2019)

• These are the three main bets that will be launched in the new fairground in which they will invest almost 14 million euros for Lorca have the best facilities in history, leaders in the Region of Murcia.

In the coming days will be approved the contracting of the remaining works for the complete opening of the site in the spring of 2020

The Mayor of Lorca, Fulgencio Gil, reported that Lorca is going to launch in the coming months a new meeting of the primary sector called to become the benchmark of the meetings in this field throughout the Spanish east.

This is "Expocampo Mediterráneo", an event that will take advantage of the extensive experience we have in our city to concentrate in Lorca the most important firms in the sector, check the most significant advances in the field and obtain the maximum performance of the infrastructure more powerful for the realization of these events, as it is the case of the Center of Fairs and Congresses of Santa Quiteria.

Fulgencio Gil explained that the organization of this new Fair is a demand, a true clamor, which has been raised by the many companies in the agri-food sector both Lorca and nearby cities.

Our municipality, as the undisputed head of the county in Guadalentín, Almanzora and Los Vélez, has to take on this challenge, to which we will respond with guarantees.

Together with Expocampo Mediterráneo, another event will be added to the Santa Quiteria cycle, such as the Leisure and Tourism Fair, "Ociotur", which will bring together in our city the most outstanding offer on the national scene, with meetings for professionals of the sector, tour operators, travel agencies, the general public ... This initiative will help us to promote our wide range of tourism, since we have alternatives for leisure, tourism and free time for all publics, sectors and ages, from pure nature from our highlands, to the sun and beach of our coast, passing through the gastronomy and the rich monumental and cultural heritage of the city.

We will create together with the sports clubs and associations of the municipality "DeporLorca", a Sports Fair that takes advantage of the exceptional facilities of the Congress Center and in which the base sport will be a prominent protagonist.

Through this Fair we will exhibit, together with the clubs, the many virtues of local sport, inviting young people to try these sports to get their charms and add to the benefits of an active and healthy life.

Gil has announced that in addition to these three large samples that will give continuity to the fair program of the municipality, we propose other more commercial cutting taking advantage of the economic fabric of the municipality, as is the case of a fair of the second-hand vehicle, among other proposals that we will develop with the professionals ".

These samples will be the first 3 that are added to the annual calendar of Santa Quiteria, a framework of exceptional quality that places Lorca as a reference for the celebration of fairs in more than 200 kilometers around.

The fairs and exhibitions already have a large 4,661 m2 hall and a new multipurpose space in the main building of 1,500 m2.

In this way we will contribute to the social, hospitality and commercial dynamization in Lorca.

We are all fully aware that the realization of these activities entails powerful synergies in all aspects.

We are talking about more life, economic movement, prestige as a city and more visitors in our streets.

These are elements that contribute positively to accentuate the leadership of Lorca at the subregional level, and whose celebration is part of the ambitious cultural, social and commercial revolution that we have underway to place Lorca as the true jewel of the southeast.

Fulgencio Gil has confirmed that our commitment is to continue expanding the calendar of Fairs and Congresses in the new Center that we have built in Santa Quiteria, and precisely this, which we propose to develop in the spring, constitutes the great Fair that the municipality needed.

Our primary sector, true and historical socio-economic engine, requires an event of these characteristics, which is also configured as a tool to claim the contribution of agriculture and livestock to the creation of employment, economic activity, good nutrition through products that offer the highest quality and security in the world, in addition to making visible the work of our farmers and ranchers in the fight against desertification.

The Mayor recalled that the annual program of Fairs offers great attractions and has allowed to treasure an experience in management and organization that allow to face with rigor and responsibility the implementation of this new Fair.

We will take advantage of everything we have learned in Fericab, Sepor, Feramur, Healthy Lorca, Craft Market, Pet Fair, Sicarm, Bonsai Congress ... to promote new events.

Lorca will multiply its possible competitiveness by accelerating its economic diversification.

The productive fabric accentuates us as head of Comarca and essential area within the national southeast.

But this impulse can not come from any side;

we have to do it from those areas with the strongest roots and attachment, from those sectors that are part of the municipality, from tradition and from our councils, but also seeking to attract new activities that generate synergies and industrial dynamism.

The new fairgrounds and congresses of Lorca is built on the land where the demolished Santa Quiteria fairground was located.

The first phase of the project contemplated the demolition of the old fairgrounds, the dismantling of the old outer cover for its later installation in the Huerto de la Rueda, and the completion of a wide excavation of 4 meters deep to establish the foundation of the new buildings.

The works also include the preparation of all the medium voltage installations, telephony, drinking water supply and sanitation that provided services within the scope of execution of the work.

In addition, they include the realization of the foundation, structure, enclosures and waterproofing works for this new sociocultural facility, which will include an auditorium.

Once all the construction phases for the construction of this new equipment have been completed, the exhibiting capacity of the Fair Center will have been increased, from 5.010 m2 that the previous one had to 8.600 m2 (including an area that could be subdivided to hold meetings or install fairs and another specific for exhibitions).

In this sense, Gil has announced that in the coming days will be taken to the Government Board the contracting of the remaining works for the complete opening of the site in the spring of 2020 with this ambitious trade fair agenda.

Finally, the Mayor has announced that "although next week we will announce our ambitious Parking Plan, we would like to advance that the Limusa car park located in the vicinity and with 5,000 m2 will be free to attend the fairs, But it will also be free for use every day, as well as the Huerto de la Rueda, so that anyone who wants to access the center of Lorca can park at no cost and move around taking advantage of the beauty of the malls. city ​​as "Sabadeando x Lorca" and the rest of leisure proposals we will put a shuttle bus between these parkings and the center to offer all the facilities to enjoy leisure and the environment in the streets lorquinas and that both for residents of districts and for visitors it is easier than ever to enjoy Lorca and its festive offer ".
