With the final figures for this 39th edition yet to be confirmed, Rastrillo Aragón has already raised €682,429 after collecting a further €77,111 during Sunday's event. All proceeds will go toward funding a new phase of expansion and renovation work at the Ozanam Nuestra Señora del Carmen Residence.

DISCOUNTS AT ALL 26 STANDS TO CLOSE THE RASTRILLO

The final day offers another opportunity for those who have not yet visited the venue or who want to return in search of a particular item. All 26 stands will offer special discounts throughout Monday in a bid to give fundraising one final boost before closing.

Sunday also brought one of the most notable visits of this edition. Actor and television presenter Carlos Sobera toured Rastrillo Aragón, drawing attention from members of the public and volunteers. Sobera is in Zaragoza these days for the performance of “La comedia de la olla” at the Teatro Principal.

The day's program also featured the Comparsa de Cabezudos de la Antigua Química, which paraded through the venue at midday and brought a festive atmosphere to an event where solidarity once again took center stage.

Rastrillo Aragón will close this Monday after an edition made possible by the involvement of more than 800 volunteers, as well as companies, organizations and individuals. The final opportunity to visit will last until 9 p.m., with free entry.
