San Fulgencio's ruling PSOE has voiced concerns over new local council rules restricting outdoor entertainment at bars and hospitality venues. The opposition party warned such measures could harm the economy and cut leisure options for locals and tourists. The new protocol, set to start on October 1, 2026, from the ruling PP/PIPN coalition, will limit establishments to only one outdoor event per month, down from two currently allowed.
Seasonal rules also limit entertainment times, from 2pm-10pm between October-May, and 5pm-11.59pm between June-September. The PSOE claims residents and establishments are worried about the 10pm cutoff during April and May, when longer evenings traditionally encourage outdoor activities. They also question why restrictions are being imposed after three years of the current government.
The opposition group emphasized the impact on residents, tourists, and organizations using entertainment for fundraising, while acknowledging the need to control noise. The PSOE pledged to reassess the protocol if it gains control of the council in the 2027 elections, aiming for a balance between peace and supporting the hospitality sector.
