This initiative of the Catholic Association of Propagandists<\/a> will bring together, in Madrid's Plaza de Cibeles, the singers Grilex<\/a>Carlos Baute, Juan Pe\u00f1a, Andy y Lucas and the Catholic youth group Hakuna. A unique celebration, marked by joy, to celebrate \"the most joyful event for the world\".<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Perhaps not since WYD in Madrid in 2011 have Spanish Catholics experienced an event of public manifestation of faith in the streets of a capital city. On April 15, within the Easter Octave, the central Cibeles Square in Madrid will host a \"different\" concert. Well-known singers of different styles, and markedly Catholic groups, such as Hakuna<\/a>will share the stage to celebrate, together with all those who wish to join them, the joy of the Resurrection. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"My idea was to get U2 on that stage.\"<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The idea for this concert came some years ago from the president of the Catholic Association of Propagandists, Alfonso Bull\u00f3n de Mendoza<\/a> who acknowledged, at the lunch presentation of this concert, that his first idea had been \"to put U2 on that stage\". The cache of the Irish group and the difficulties made visible the impossibility of doing it \"for the moment\", but did not discourage the president of the propagandists who, once overcome the years of pandemic, has resumed with unusual force a celebration that was born with the idea of perpetuating in time. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bull\u00f3n explained that, in order to publicize this concert, he had met with various Church institutions, in addition, of course, to the Archdiocese of Madrid. Bull\u00f3n stressed that \"they all thought it was a wonderful idea. I have spoken with people from Effet\u00e1, Schoenstatt, the Neocatechumenal Way, Opus Dei... They have all encouraged us a lot and I know that they have moved it in their environment\". <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Resurrection Festival promises to be an unforgettable meeting from which its organizers hope to \"learn a lot and see if it can be done every year\". <\/p>\n\n\n\n
