Festival will raise support for Big Reds Animal Association
The festival is being held in support of Big Reds Animal Association, a registered animal charity founded in Spain in 2014.
Big Reds rescues abandoned and unwanted animals and prepares them for new homes. Its work includes providing food and veterinary care, along with neutering, vaccinations and microchipping.
Donations help the association meet the continuing costs of looking after animals while permanent homes are found.
The charity also operates shops in Catral and Torrevieja, with proceeds helping towards the care and welfare of its rescue animals.
Free Elche festival runs across Saturday and Sunday
The October festival gives visitors the chance to support that work while attending the different activities taking place over the weekend.
The Mandala Arts Festival of Spirit will run from 12:00 PM until 7:00 PM on Saturday, October 17 and Sunday, October 18.
The venue is Partida Daimes, Poligono 3, 110 F, Elche, and admission is free.
Visitors can explore the arts and wellbeing stalls, take part in activities and find out more about the work carried out by Big Reds Animal Association.
