Antonio Gades unable to attend tribute in his honor at La Unión festival due to medical reasons

Gades is experiencing an attack of high fever and his physicians have
advised against this, or any other trip. The choreographer and dancer
has expressed profound regret to the organization and stated that he «had
been anxiously looking forward to this tribute».

The official act in his honor, scheduled to take place Tuesday at 8:45
p.m. at La Unión's town hall has therefore been cancelled. José
Antonio, director of the Compañía Andaluza de Danza, will
accept the award in his name immediately preceding the Gala Flamenca in
the Antiguo Mercado Público and will address the audience in his
name at 10:45 p.m.
