Ronda presented today at the International Tourism Fair in Madrid (FITUR 2022) the 'vertigo fashion Bridge', a new event that is loved by Agatha Ruíz de la Prada. The prestigious designer of international fame has been at the event with the mayor of Ronda, Ma Paz Fernández, the delegate of institutional Relations, Jesús Vázquez, the municipal delegate of Tourism, Ángel Martínez and the councillor of Youth and Sports, Carlos Mirasol, who form, together with local entrepreneurs and technicians of 'Tourism of Ronda', the delegation of the city to the Madrid fair.
The councillor explained that the first edition of the 'vertigo fashion Bridge', will be held in June and will be organized by the Town Hall of Ronda and Costa del Sol Tourism. It will be a fashion gateway 100 meters high and also more than 100 meters long that will have the New Bridge of Ronda as the stage.
The choice of date is not by chance as, as explained by the mayor, it will be held in June to energize tourism in Ronda in a month between the multiple events of May and the beginning of summer in July.
She wanted to highlight the importance of the godmother of Agatha Ruiz de la Prada, one of the most important and internationally known Spanish designers who, moreover, is well aware of Ronda where it has been customary to participate in events such as the Goyesca bullfight. Fernandez has highlighted that she is an award-winning designer with some of the most prestigious fashion awards in Spain and in many other countries in the world, Agatha Ruiz de la Prada has achieved something as difficult as creating a completely recognizable style of her own, marked by the joy of her colors, the originality of her designs and essential elements and that are part of the brand like flowers, stars or hearts.
The 'vertigo fashion Brigde' will also involve local designers with the aim of also empowering young rondeans dedicated to fashion. To this we must join, said the councillor that, during the weekend of celebration of the catwalk, specialized journalists from all over Spain will arrive in Ronda and numerous influencers who will spread the event and the city throughout the world through their social networks, seeking the greatest possible media impact.
The mayor has nuanced that it will be the first time in history that Ronda's most recognized monument in the world has hosted such an event, not hesitating to qualify it as one of the most spectacular scenarios to have hosted an international fashion gateway.
For her part, the designer has expressed her illusion to be part of this event, announcing that it will be "the bomb", because Ronda is one of the "prettiest cities in the world", there is a "great team" preparing everything and "I will do everything I can to wear the prettiest dresses I have."
The Ronda delegation in FITUR, in addition to this presentation, has continued to carry out an arduous technical work with numerous meetings with professionals in the sector, one of them with SEGITUR, to propose the financing of some projects and has also presented to TOURESPAÑA, the candidacy for Ronda to host the congress of this body where half a thousand people would participate.
The second day of the city at the tourism fair in Madrid is still very intense after yesterday the Ronda delegation took part in the traditional dinner organized by Tourism Costa del Sol and where Ronda played an important role in spreading the main tourist values of the province of Malaga.
