The Film Academy has apologized to its members for "the deficiencies and errors" of organization at the gala of the 34th edition of the Goya Awards held at the José María Martín Carpena Sports Center in Malaga last Saturday.

In a letter addressed to academics, the executive committee of the board of directors apologizes for "the failures and problems related to travel and accommodation , as well as the visual and sound technical deficiencies that took place during the gala and the development of the subsequent cocktail ".

"Neither the television and economic success, essential to guarantee the operation of the Academy, nor the extraordinary complexity of this edition of the 34 Goya Awards can justify the deficiencies and errors that have occurred," said the executive chaired by Mariano Barroso.

With a capacity of about 3,500 people, these Goya were among the most massive in recent years and some academics complained about the difficulties and queues to access the Martín Carpena site, due to technical failures of the gala or because the train tickets for the transfer they did not arrive on time, among other aspects.

"We are taking the necessary measures so that these incidents are not repeated," underlines the executive commission in the letter to which Efe has had access.

This has been the third time in its history that the Goya are celebrated outside of Madrid . Last year they took place in Seville and in 2000 they moved to Barcelona.
