Overview
- Police Local sealed a screen installed by the Diputación in Praza da Estrela on Friday because the event lacked municipal authorization and could not proceed without compliance with local rules.
- Municipal safety chiefs issued a formal requerimiento on Monday that identified six specific deficiencies and gave the Diputación until Tuesday 13:00 to fix them for a permit to be granted.
- The Jefatura de Seguridad and technical reports said the submission lacked an adequate aforo calculation, a valid civil‑liability insurance in the promoter’s name, complete electrical-installation paperwork, a full technical memory, a proper declaración responsable, and proof of port authorization for the exact dates.
- The Diputación’s vice president, Luisa Sánchez, says the provincial body has port permission and sent documents to the Concello and intends to reinstall the screen, while Mayor Abel Caballero has offered a Concello-organized screening at Auditorio de Castrelos.
- The dispute has become political with reciprocal accusations between the PP-run Diputación and the PSOE-run Concello and could determine whether Praza da Estrela hosts the semifinal or whether residents must use the Castrelos alternative; officials’ decisions this week will decide access, safety oversight, and which authority wins public visibility.
