What’s the format for The Dancing Egg for Corpus 2023 with the drought?

This year’s version of Barcelona’s quintessential Corpus Christi tradition, The Dancing Egg, has had to be adapted due to the climate emergency and the current drought. The exceptional circumstances have driven organisations to seek different solutions, in line with the possibilities of each space. Where water can be recycled for watering, quantities have been reduced to the minimum, while other spaces have had to opt for fountains without water or use air jets to make the egg dance.
