MOGY has already opened in Las Rozas!

It is important to highlight that MOGY can be accessed free of charge and that attendees can enjoy more than fifty exhibitors showcasing the latest developments in mobility and sustainability. It is an ideal plan for the whole family, as there are children’s areas and even food trucks. If you want to attend, you can request your ticket on the event’s official website.

The MOGY Fair has been designed so that families can spend a fun day outdoors. The youngest visitors have a large children’s area with a go-kart and mini-moto track, giant games, a play library, creative workshops, arts and crafts, a gymkhana and sports activities. On Saturday there will be a musical show for the whole family to promote road safety. In addition, on Sunday from 10:00, “MOGY Junior, School Sustainability Fair” will take place, in which pupils from six schools in Las Rozas will present the sustainable projects they entered in the Municipal Educational Robotics Tournament.

José de la Uz, mayor of Las Rozas, has stated that “this fair is going to be a success and will be packed with visitors, not only from Las Rozas but from across the whole region. Cities are the hotbeds of economic activity, and we must be the engines of sustainable strategies. Las Rozas offers many opportunities and is an important scientific and technological field, in this case at the service of sustainability. If our city is more sustainable, it is thanks to the innovation and investment being carried out. I offer Las Rozas as a pilot testing ground for these technologies. Today we have been able to see here the Goggo Cart, the first autonomous vehicle that will drive without a driver on public roads, and it will be in Las Rozas”.

For his part, David Pérez García congratulated Las Rozas on “its commitment to sustainable mobility through a very balanced development that provides the city with the appropriate services while also respecting the environment. For the Community of Madrid it is a source of pride to be able to showcase a city like Las Rozas, which is an example of so many policies, not only in mobility but also in accessibility, youth, housing… the commitment of Isabel Díaz Ayuso to the aspects that come together at this fair: public-private collaboration, economic boost, the environment and public transport”.
