Track closure at Valls tomorrow for a human tower performance between 5 and 9 p.m.

Carrer de l'Església will be closed tomorrow afternoon between 5 p.m. and 9 p.m. without prior notice to drivers. This interruption affects traffic on a central street of Valls and causes changes in usual mobility.

The cause is a castle performance scheduled by the Valls City Council, which has informed about the closure through an official notice on social networks. The measure will be in effect for four hours, coinciding with the festive event.

Impact on local mobility

Area affected by the closure

The closure focuses on Carrer de l'Església, one of the city's nerve centers. This street usually supports considerable traffic, especially in the afternoon.

Alternatives for drivers

Vehicles will have to find alternative routes to avoid the closed zone. Options include adjacent streets, but the City Council has not detailed official detours.

Details of the castle performance

What is a castle performance?

Castells are a symbolic tradition of Valls and Catalonia. This type of performance involves gathering members of casteller groups who build human towers in the public street.

Schedule and duration

The performance will start at 5 p.m. and is expected to end at 9 p.m., when the street closure will be lifted and normal traffic will resume.

Reactions and official communication

City Council communication

The Valls City Council published the closure notice via its official X (Twitter) account on May 15, 2026, alerting citizens in advance.

Response from residents and drivers

There is not yet official data on public reaction, but it is expected that the closure will cause inconvenience to usual traffic, especially for residents who use Carrer de l'Església to access the city center.

Managing the closure and prior information will be key to minimizing the impact on local mobility. Residents will need to stay alert and plan their routes.

The castells will once again thrill Valls, but at the price of a closure that not everyone will appreciate.
