Arinaga celebrates this weekend the last events planned within this year's programming of its Pine Festivals, with two main events.

 

On Saturday, September 9, the Mareas Vivas festival, designed by and for the young population, will take place on Avenida de Los Pescadores and on the main stage of the square. From 10:00 in the morning there will be workshops, a craft market and music until late into the night, with the final performances by the groups Muelle Viejo and Los 600.

 

The last of the scheduled cultural activities will take place on Sunday, September 10 at the House of Culture. It will be a tribute to the writer and poet Carmen Rivero, author of the 'Hymno a la Vará'.

The Pine Festival in Arinaga began last August 20 and once again had the largest activity, La Vará del Pescao, the popular pilgrimage that pays tribute to the seafaring past of this town, which once again gathered around Avenida de Los Pescadores to several thousand people enjoying the journey of the different boats along the entire promenade, from the Risco Verde to the Los Barquillos area. Parrandas, grilled fish, good atmosphere and a final fireworks show from the Arinaga Pier that once again delighted an audience dedicated to one of the busiest celebrations in the Southeast of Gran Canaria.
