SUMMARY:Tejeda Almond Blossom Festival 2024
DESCRIPTION:\nThe 51st edition of the Almond Blossom Festival in Tejeda between 27 January – 4 February 2024. \n\n					“The first weekend of February on Gran Canaria marks the almond blossom festival celebrated in Tejeda. The flowering of the almond trees in the middle of winter, most years as January ends and on into February, heralds the imminent arrival of Spring and, for the communities of the island’s summits, makes the Almendros in Flor perhaps the most important “pagan” celebration of the island’s flowering fields.”\nFiestas del Almendro en Flor Tejeda, one of the most popular festivities during the winter season on Gran Canaria is one of the most wonderful events to visit at this time of year. Almond trees blossoming up in the mountains daubing the beautiful spring scenery in an experience most definitely worth the drive along the island’s oldest roads.\nIn the past editions of “Fiesta del Almendro en Flor, Tejeda”, there have been countless people coming to Tejeda from around the island, from other islands, from the national territory, and from other countries. This celebration, which started as a local party sponsored by tejedenses still young at that time, has grown in unimaginable ways, becoming what is today a benchmark in terms of esencia of canariedad, the essence of canarianism, expressed through music, dance, food, crafts and local autonomous sports.\nProgram 2024: \nSaturday 27 January:\nat 08:00 IX CronoTrail Almendro en Flor\nat 20:30 IX Certamen de Teatro Costumbrista\nFriday 2 February\nat 09:30 Meeting of schools CEO Tejeda and the CEIP Las Lagunetas, La Lechuza, La Solana, Ariñez, Utiaca and Rey Juan Carlos at the Alfredo Kraus Cultural Center.\nat 20:00 Pregón, opening proclamation of the fiestas with music performance at the Alfredo Kraus Cultural Center.\nat 21:30 V Encuentro de Parrandas, Canarian music group gathering at Plaza de la Vaguada.\nat 23:30 Party with music by La Tribu at Plaza de la Vaguada.\n\nMAIN FESTIVE WEEKEND 3-4 FEBRUARY 2024\nSaturday 3 February 2024:\nThe first day is dedicated to tourists and for everyone who wants to enjoy all that this village, officially one the most beautiful villages in Spain, has to offer.\nFrom 10:00 Artisan Craft and Gastronomy Fair.\nDuring the day traditional Canarian music from the parrandas and invited groups, as well as workshops and exhibitions with traditional games, Canarian wrestling, shepherd’s jump, Canarian whistle, and stick fighting.\nat 12:00 Music show with Maresía\nat 14:00 Music show with Faneroque Margullando\nat 15:30 Lively little street parade with papahuevos, entertained by the Isleña Band\nat 17:30 Music show with Vaya 2\nat 20:00h Presentation of the Silver Almond Tree and musical performance\nat 22:30 Gran Verbena del Almendro, Almond party\nThere is also the first edition of “Quick Painting” contest during the day\nSunday 4 February 2024:\nThe second Day Sunday will be a true sample of culture and Canarian tradition.
