More than 55,000 people in the Cos Blanc

Cos Blanc Salou 2026



Salou. Costa Dorada. 08 February 2026.
The Cos Blanc de Salou 2026 has once again shown that it is the best outdoor party on the Costa Dorada and, possibly, Catalonia. More than 55,000 people according to the City Council gathered on Paseo Jaume I to enjoy the great show of light, sound, music, good atmosphere, and a large parade with 28 carretels and almost 7,000 people disguised participating directly in the parade.
The figures are always spectacular in the Cos Blanc:
  • 30 tons of biodegradable confetti
  • 30 towers with cannons that keep firing confetti 
  • 30 giant LED screens
  • 250 mobile light points
  • 27 carretels of entities plus 1 of the City Council with the Pubilles and the Hereu
  • 7,000 people participating in the parade
  • 55,000 spectators
In this edition 2026 several groups have celebrated the anniversary:
  • Gastronomic: 30 years participating in the Cos Blanc
  • The Colla Els Dimecres, 25 years of attendance at the Cos Blanc
  • Bandarra also with 25 years parading at the party
  • No Tan Jove has also been participating in the Cos Blanc for 25 years
  • Xurrucate has also been in the White Body for 25 years
  • Molta Festa in 10 years of participation
  • Caracol also made 10 year parade in the White Body
Costumes of all kinds (of red hoods, of scientists, of chess, of cowboys, of Tyroleans, and a long etcetera) have been the protagonists chosen by the groups, who have danced and have made battles of confetti between them and with the public to the sound of the musical successes of today and always, such as the song “Todos los días sale el Sol, Chipirón”, which is almost an anthem of the White Body.

This year, in addition, the street theater group of C Caddiz El Carromato has animated the Cos Blanc with giant puppets full of color and rhythm.

This year the Festival has released speakers of the show with the people of Tarragona Laura Jarque and Roberto Vara, replacing the mythical Juanma Hidalgo, who has retired. With a different style they have cleverly solved the blackout of light and sound that has occurred, explaining that it has been “a minute of silence for all the people who have not come to the Cos Blanc”.

In the morning, the groups had participated in the show, already showing the desire to party, the decoration of the carretels and the elaboration of the costumes. 

The mayor of Salou, Pere Granados, thanked once again for the involvement of the groups and the work of the security forces and all the people who work so that the Cos Blanc is a great party for everyone, and is a safe and inclusive party.

Granados also recalled that the Cos Blanc is the most outstanding and emblematic act of the Winter Festival of Salou, and that for this reason it is an activity that projects Salou and helps to deseasonalize the tourist season.
