31st Saló de la Infància i la Joventut Draws 3,600+ Visitors in Andorra

The 31st Saló de la Infància i la Joventut has concluded successfully after seven days of family activities across Encamp and Pas de la Casa, drawing more than 3,600 visitors in total.

Encamp's session, held from December 27 to 30, attracted over 3,600 attendees, surpassing initial projections. Visitor feedback highlighted the wide variety of options, strong organisation, welcoming family atmosphere, age-specific zones, festive decor and the professionalism of staff and monitors. Inflatables proved the top draw, followed closely by virtual reality setups, simulators, video games and 6D/7D cinema experiences. Younger children particularly enjoyed the "Primeres sensacions" area designed for early ages, while teens gravitated towards consoles, arcade games and circuits for bikes, karts and cars. Creative workshops including face painting, crafts and makeup, along with shows and interactive elements, also earned high praise.

Joan Sans, Encamp councillor for Culture, Childhood and Youth, described the event as "a shared experience between children, youth and their families."

The Pas de la Casa leg opened Friday afternoon at the Centre Esportiu and ran until Sunday, January 4, with organisers anticipating 250-300 daily visitors—figures in line with previous years despite slightly lower expectations than Encamp. Councillors Nino Marot (Finance, Sports and Economic Reactivation) and Sabrina Grégoire Torres reported immediate strong turnout, with the venue filling quickly for 7D cinema, creative workshops, interactive spaces and sports zones. Marot called the response "very positive," noting the saló's role as a popular après-ski option for local families and repeat tourist visitors. The edition closed with a performance by the group Gripau Blau.

Organised by Encamp council, the saló remains a highlight of Andorra's Christmas season, offering inclusive leisure for ages 0-17.
