The event will feature a programme combining cooking, culture, agricultural heritage and participatory activities, with the aim of showcasing this product and its connection to the town\u2019s history and economic activity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The initiative aims to introduce the world of olive oil to a wide range of audiences, from food enthusiasts to families, while highlighting the value of locally sourced products. The festival also helps raise the profile of the Vila-seca Agricultural Cooperative, an organisation deeply rooted in local life that is celebrating 125 years of history this year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The cooperative\u2019s anniversary will take centre stage in this edition, with activities offering an insight into its history and contribution to the town\u2019s agricultural development. A commemorative exhibition and a screening of historical photographs will showcase the organisation\u2019s evolution and its activities over the years. The festival will also provide the setting for the unveiling of the Agricultural Cooperative\u2019s new brand image.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Gastronomy will be one of the main highlights of the programme. Chef Arnau Par\u00eds will lead a live cooking demonstration followed by a tasting, exploring the culinary possibilities of olive oil and sharing ideas for incorporating it into different dishes. Afterwards, visitors will be able to purchase his books and have them signed, as well as meet him, even if they were unable to attend the cooking demonstration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
