The exhibition, divided into five thematic sections, offers a tour through the different historical elements that make up the Corpus celebration in the city. Visitors can get a close look at the rich cultural heritage linked to this festival through audiovisual material, old press clippings, historical photographs, sheet music, and musical instruments used in the traditional civic procession.
Furthermore, the exhibition showcases traditional Valencian attire from the 18th and 19th centuries, allowing visitors to discover the evolution and uniqueness of one of the most emblematic celebrations in the Valencian festive calendar.

Both were accompanied by Josep Lluís Mendieta, representing the Cultural Association Balls del Corpus de Gandia, who explained the main characteristics and particularities of the display.
