The town of Burjassot, in l'Horta Nord, hosted a day of tribute to Guillem Agulló on April 11, 2026, marking the 33rd anniversary of his assassination, with significant public participation.

Hundreds of people, mostly young anti-fascists, gathered to remember the figure of Guillem Agulló, who was murdered on April 11, 1993, in Montanejos by a far-right group. The main event took place at can Bassot, becoming a focal point for the vindication of memory and the fight against fascism.
The events, organized by various social and cultural entities in the municipality, included a concentration, a demonstration through the town's streets, and the reading of a manifesto. Throughout the day, Agulló's importance as a symbol of resistance against fascism and racism was highlighted, with the repeated slogan "Guillem Agulló, neither oblivion nor forgiveness." The music of dolçainers and tabaleters from the group Estrela Roja accompanied the acts.

Guillem Agulló, neither oblivion nor forgiveness.

The Town Hall Square was one of the epicenters of the commemoration, where family members, activists, and representatives of various organizations remembered the young man from Burjassot as a person deeply committed to politics and society. An emotional floral offering was also made in his memory.
The organizers emphasized that this tribute goes beyond mere remembrance, serving as a fundamental tool to raise awareness among new generations about the dangers of hatred and political violence. They stressed the continued relevance of Guillem Agulló's legacy, which over the years has become a benchmark for anti-fascism in the Països Catalans.
