At 12:30 PM, Antonio Salado Muñoz will deliver the opening speech, followed by a procession with the Panda de Verdiales de Moclinejo to the wine press, where attendees can witness the work of the grape stompers to extract the muscatel juice.

Between 12:30 PM and 3:00 PM, there will be wheel dances and workshops on grape picking, sorting, laying out, and stomping. Throughout the morning, traditional stalls will offer tastings of cured meats, hornazos, raisins, wines, and grapes.

At around 3:30 PM, the popular paella will be distributed for one euro, with proceeds benefiting a local association. Afterwards, attendees can enjoy homemade borrachuelos and music from Electroduendes and Malamanera. The Mister and Lady of Winegrowers 2025 will also be chosen, and at 8:30 PM, the Cádiz chirigota 'Los Company' will perform in the Plaza de España.
