Everything is ready for the fourth edition of the charity dinner "El Sopar dels Miralls", a unique evening that supports biomedical research carried out at the Dr. Josep Trueta Biomedical Research Institute of Girona (IDIBGI). The event was presented today at a ceremony at the IDIBGI where registration for the dinner was opened.
Looking at someone, following their example and/or imitating them is a desire shared by many people, young and old. The opportunity to share a table with the person you admire, accompanied by a good cause and an emblematic venue, is the formula that generates "El Sopar dels Miralls". This year, the evening will be held on Friday 15 March at Mas Solà. Organised jointly for IDIBGI and PlanellaEvents, the event aims to raise funds for research.
First hosts confirmed
This will be the fourth edition of this initiative with an original format that has been very well received. This year will see the participation of hosts such as Laia Palau, Glòria Serra, Martí Gironell, Martí Peraferrer, Magda Carlas, Tomas Molina, Laura Rosel, Maria Xinxó, Dr. Ramon Brugada, Raquel Sans, Marta Bosch, Ada Parellada, Àngels Gonyalons, Antoni Bassas, Pilarín Bayés, Patrícia Plaja, Lluís Roura, Vicenç Villatoro, Josep Puigbó, Santiago Niño-Becerra, pending completion of the final participation.
At the same presentation ceremony, an element that has accompanied each edition was also shown: the apron, the symbol of the dinner. The apron is the detail given to the hosts, who selflessly participate in this event and are its main protagonists. In each edition the colour is different and on this occasion it will be red.
How to participate?
The "Sopar dels Miralls" is designed so that everyone can participate. Individuals and companies of all kinds can find a way to add to the social commitment to support biomedical research in an original and attractive way. For individuals, it can be a reason to go out for dinner, a good original gift (birthday, surprise...) or an excuse to share an evening with friends. For companies, it is an opportunity to be represented and to give visible support to an important cause, such as research to improve the health of everyone. At the same time, this is a unique experience to share with company staff, or to invite clients and/or suppliers.
The organisation allows you to choose the host with whom you want to share a table, and also offers the opportunity to propose new ones, in case you are interested in a specific person. People who are unable to attend the dinner but would still like to contribute to the initiative can participate with the "0" dish.
The reservation of tables can be made through the following website www.elsopardelsmiralls.cat, by e-mail (hola@elsopardelsmiralls.cat) or by phone or Whatsapp (972 21 84 82 / 609312254).
Menus can be purchased individually or collectively, in the case of organisations, entities or companies that want to book an entire table with a specific host or hostess. The main idea is that a group and/or company purchases a whole table of 8 or 10 guests plus the relevant person. In case you want to participate as an individual or not complementing a table, you will have to make the request with 5 options of host or hostess. In addition, there is also the option of making a surprise for someone close to you by inviting them to participate in this unique event.
The event organisers invite the public to propose names of prominent people who could be added to the public figures who already collaborate with the event. The price for a table of 8 diners is 960 €, for a table of 10 diners it is 1.200 €, for an individual menu it is 120 € and the "0" dish represents a contribution of 60 €.
