After the last events around the cavalcade of the Magi, Dénia City Council has announced a change in the rules. Facing the cavalcade of 2018, the department held an open draw parties among citizens for any Dianense to participate in the parade "regardless of their social class, sex or membership in any association or entity of the city".
This has been announced from the consistory on Wednesday afternoon, after the meeting held with members of the Federation of Moors and Christians. In it they make it clear that "The City Council has been surprised by the debate that arose in the street about the suitability or not that a woman can play the role of the magician king in the ride of Dénia".
Which is why we have announced this change of policy, with the main objective of "Ensure that the illusion and enthusiasm that thousands of children in Dénia live that day are not compromised."
As the cavalcade of 2017, the City will continue to respect the lot by the FEMMIC representing the carriage of a king. Therefore, the winning captain of the draw will be responsible for deciding which people will be above the float as King and companions, regardless of sex, although they add that "hoping they are aware of the role they play in the illusion of our children, the only protagonists of this party".
