The Baluarte de la Candelaria in C\u00e1diz hosted a special event today dedicated to the city of Jerez, within the framework of the 63rd National Philatelic Exhibition (Exfilna) and the 29th National Youth Philatelic Exhibition (Juvenia), two of the most prominent events on the Spanish philatelic scene. During the event, the commemorative stamp for #Jerez2031’s candidacy to become European Capital of Culture was officially presented. This issue was promoted by Correos and the Spanish Federation of Philatelic Societies (Fesofifi), in collaboration with the C\u00e1diz City Council, the Provincial Council of C\u00e1diz, and the Royal Mint.<\/p>\n\n
This action is part of the strategy to promote and enhance the visibility of Jerez’s bid to become European Capital of Culture 2031, thanks to collaboration and partnerships with various national and international institutions and organizations.
The new stamp, along with its commemorative postmark and postcard, symbolizes Jerez’s cultural and international reach and reinforces its bid to become European Capital of Culture in 2031. Its design features the bid’s visual identity alongside two of the city’s most emblematic landmarks: the Royal Andalusian School of Equestrian Art and the Cayetano del Pino Winery, which represent its artistic, cultural, and winemaking heritage.<\/p>\n\n
The stamp is also part of the special issue series for this edition of Exfilna, further solidifying Jerez’s position as a leading cultural destination in Spain.<\/p>\n\n
The delegate for Culture, Major Events, Historical Heritage and European Capital of Culture of the Jerez City Council, Francisco Zurita, attended the presentation and stressed that \u201cthis commemorative stamp dedicated to Jerez represents the beginning of a symbolic journey that carries the name of our city, hand in hand with the entire province of C\u00e1diz, towards a future of shared culture and collaboration between territories,\u201d the delegate pointed out.
