Events

One of the things that makes Gran Canaria stand out is the great variety and richness of the cultural events held here. Scheduled all year round, the island´s programme of cultural events encompasses all aspects of creativity from music to sculpture, painting and modelling, theatre, dance and traditional festivals. We have included a large part of the complete programme of activities in this diary as yet another incentive to add to the island´s many other attractions which include historical heritage, nature, shopping and holiday leisure activities.
