Toys & Rock Returns to Deliver Toys to Hospitalized Children in Málaga

Music and solidarity will join hands once again in Málaga to welcome December with the charity festival Toys & Rock, whose proceeds will go to hospitalized children.

The event will kick off on December 5th at 8:30 PM and has the unique feature that instead of paying for admission, attendees are asked to bring new toys and school supplies which will later be distributed among children in the Oncology ward of the Materno Hospital in Málaga. Representatives from the superhero association 'Un niño una sonrisa' will be responsible for delivering the collected items to the children.

In this edition of the festival, bands like Blackbeties, Brigitte, Living Camboya, and Electroviral (Tribute to Supersubmarina) will participate altruistically. Since its inception over 15 years ago, numerous prominent local bands have contributed to this charitable initiative, such as Fila India, Jarrillo Lata, or Airbag. Although the festival's focus is on children, access to the Trinchera venue is limited to those over 18 years of age.

The person responsible for Toys & Rock is Antonio Trujillo from Málaga, guitarist and singer of the now-defunct powerpop band D-7, who is optimistic about the upcoming event on December 5th and hopes for maximum public attendance. The musician notes that each year "the festival grows" and more groups show interest in participating, so he has "very good feelings" about this new edition.

Trujillo, who also performs at this festival, emphasizes that the donated items must be new, as they are intended for children in delicate health conditions, and he hopes that once again, they can welcome Christmas in Málaga with a great surprise for hospitalized minors during these special dates.
