• The Rooster is the main character and the one around which the festival revolves.

• Another of the main characters is the King , a boy of about 10 years old dressed in his best clothes, wearing leggings, a band that crosses his chest and a hat. He is in charge of carrying the rooster on the spinning wheel. This is placed in the center of the street, with the spinning wheel held high, so that the young men can go in for the rooster.

• The dancers, for their part, stand in two rows flanking the King and dance to the sound of a tune played by the dulzainas and the tambourine at the moment in which the young men are allowed to go in for the rooster.

• The Zarramaco is a strong young man dressed in skins and cowbells and with his face painted. Their job is to defend the rooster if any young man dares to come in and take it away, using a tarrañuela (a stick split from top to bottom). 

• The alguaciles and the Mozo mayor are in charge of enforcing the rules, keeping the lines, etc. The former, dressed in old jackets and sashes, also carry saddlebags with ashes or other deterrent and throwable elements inside, which they pour at the feet of the people if they do not leave enough space for the young men to go out for the rooster. They also use long sticks with which they mark the limit so that visitors do not interrupt the progress of the party. The Mozo Mayor is dressed in a Castilian cape and recites the rules of operation.
