En Marea (translated in English as en masse) is a political party integrated by Podemos, Anova, United Left of Galicia, and some municipal alliances that participated in the 2015 municipal elections (Marea Atlántica, Compostela Aberta and Ferrol en Común).[1] It was formed in November 2015 as an electoral coalition to contest the 2015 Spanish general election in Galicia.[2]
As part of the coalition agreement with Podemos, the name on the ballot paper for both the 2015 and 2016 general elections was Podemos–En Marea–Anova–EU.[3][4]
In July 2016, the coalition registered as a political party ahead of the 2016 Galician regional election.[5]
