A large number of musicians and groups that had a direct or indirect relationship with Manolo Miralles have passed on the big stage: Pau Blanco, Bertomeu, Carixet, El Cor de Bonrebos y Mirambel, Euix, Pau Alabajos, Tomás de los Santos, Rafa Zambo and La Fosteria , Filho Ventura, Miquel Gil, Fa de Dons, Pep Butifarra, The Hill and the Musicians.

After the performances, Miralles' colleague, Pippa Coco, and her daughter, Mirella Miralles, took to the stage to give a short speech. In addition, they received from the hands of the president of the Ovidi Montler group, Jesús Barranco, a photo with the concert poster in a frame.

Finally, Culture Advisor Alfred Boulud addressed the audience to conclude the day. He announced the proposed appointment of Miralles as Chativa's favorite son, and Colla la Socarrada put the finishing touches with a performance of the dolcin and tabla.
