ANTONIO DÍAZ, EL MAGO POP, WINS THE "CATALÀ DE L'ANY" AWARD
20.11.2023
Antonio Díaz, EL MAGO POP, has been awarded the Català de l'Any (Catalan of the Year) award organized by El Periódico, a gala held at the Disseny Hub Barcelona Auditorium (DHUB) in recognition of his impressive career. The event was attended by more than 300 people, including representatives from the political, economic, cultural and social spheres who celebrated his impressive career: from Badia del Vallès to Broadway, passing through the Paral·lel.
The mayor of Barcelona Jaume Collboni highlighted the merits of Antonio Díaz and thanked him for everything he has done for Barcelona, for choosing the avenue of Paral·lel, where he represents his show in his theater, the Teatre Victòria.
Aitor Moll, CEO of Prensa Ibérica, highlighted the humble origins of a magician, "the best in the world", who has conquered his dreams based on work, enthusiasm and total dedication to a personal dream. "He is loved and respected in Catalonia and he is loved and respected abroad."
The fact that millions of people around the world follow an illusionist from Badia del Vallès has something of a heroic deed, almost a sporting event, a sense of shared pride. "We feel that his triumphs, in part, are also ours," explained Moll. That was the feeling when our Mago Pop conquered New York at the Ethel Barrymore Theater on Broadway. An audience and critics success that even the prestigious magazine 'Forbes' paid attention to.
Antonio Díaz confessed that he was experiencing a very special day. "I did not expect the prize because as a lover of statistics, the chances of winning were one in eight million. I am very grateful because it is a sign of people's affection," he said in a pleasant conversation he had with Sergi Mas. Among the audience were 25 people from his family and his team, among them Mag Lari, one of his mentors.
