1974
By the sea
Carlos Arturo Mazón Guixot was born in Alicante, in the same year and month that carnations bloom in Portugal. It will also be in Alicante that he will graduate in Law.
1999-2007
Negotiating is necessary
In 1999, he was appointed general director of the Valencian Youth Institute, in 2003, regional general director of Commerce and Consumer Affairs and, in 2007, vice-president of the Provincial Council of Alicante, where he stands out as a negotiator.
2009
Stop to live
He decides to temporarily step away from politics to become manager of the Alicante Chamber of Commerce, where he stays for a decade. This is when he can enjoy the birth and growth of his twin children, Carmen and Carlos.
2011
To sing to sing
He participated in the pre-selection for the Eurovision Song Contest with his band Marengo, a quartet where he played guitar and sang. However, all that remains is the hope of having had an artistic career.
2019
Return to the stage
He returned to politics with renewed vigor, this time on the municipal list of the Alicante City Council to become president of the Provincial Council.
2023
Mr. President
He won the regional elections, giving the PP the desired leadership of the Palau de la Generalitat, and thus gaining a reputation as a long-distance runner. He is the seventh president of the Generalitat (the fourth of the PP), in his case with the support of Vox.
2024
The most tragic date
October 29th marks the politician’s biography forever. Storm “Dana” kills 229 inhabitants of the Valencian region, generating trauma and devastation far from being overcome. Lunch with journalist Maribel Vilaplana will prove fatal.
2025
A postponed goodbye
“Dana’s” one-year ceremony, marked by suffering and anger, is the last straw in a storm that had already boiled over. Days later, he announced his long-requested resignation. It remains until the successor, with the support of Vox, is chosen.
