At the beginning of March 2024,
Jordi Graupera and
Clara Ponsatí announced that they planned to launch a new,
pro-independence "political space" within the Catalan political landscape. While eschewing the traditional language of a political party, they nonetheless announced their intention to run in the upcoming elections to the
Parliament of Catalonia, which were at the time scheduled for February 2025.
Catalan President Pere Aragonès' early calling of
elections for 12 May 2024 accelerated the process of the party's creation and electoral registration. The press conference presenting Alhora's proposal was held by Clara Ponsatí, Jordi Graupera,
Ada Ferrer and
Anna Punsoda, the group representing the new party. To be able to stand in the elections, they needed 5,703 signatures in total across all four Catalan
provinces: 4,243 in
Barcelona, 596 in
Tarragona, 546 in
Girona and 317 in
Lleida. Graupera and Ponsatí asked for volunteers for the signature collection process. On 2 April 2024, they confirmed that they had the necessary signatures. The party received 0.44% of the votes overall in the
2024 elections, achieving no representation in Parliament. Beginning in October 2024, Alhora launched a
YouTube podcast hosted by Graupera intended to spotlight discussions of diverse topics of relevance to Catalan politics, inviting a range of guests with relevant expertise or experience regardless of party affiliation. As of November 2025, the channel had 4,000 subscribers and 1.3 million views. ==Electoral performance==
