III Feria de Artesanía del Norte-Gáldar 2025
Gáldar’s Plaza de Santiago will host the third edition of the Island Crafts Fair on Saturday, May 17th and Sunday, May 18th. The fair will feature a total of 50 stalls run by artisans registered with FEDAC, an organisation affiliated with the Gran Canaria Island Council.
The fair will open its doors on Saturday from 10:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. and will continue on Sunday from 8:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. Last year it attracted around 4,000 visitors, and this year’s event is expected to repeat or even exceed that figure, thanks to a program that combines exhibitions, sales, and live music.
The exhibition will include specialties such as macramé, blacksmithing, recycling, crochet, ceramics, basketry, jewelry, toy making, forging, and cigar making, among other crafts.
The fair is organized by the Department of Socioeconomic Development of the Gáldar City Council, headed by Tine Martín, with the support of FEDAC, an entity dependent on the Department of Industry, Commerce and Crafts of the Gran Canaria Island Council.
In addition to the 50 craft stalls, the program will feature musical performances throughout the weekend, including Paco Perera, Benito Cabrera, Non Trubada, Derque Martín Trío, and Domingo Rodríguez’s group “El Colorao,” Julia Rodríguez, and Javier Cerpa, who will provide music at the closing ceremony on Sunday. There will also be a lace-making workshop led by lace-maker Elsa Santana, sponsored by FEDAC.
The fair coincides with the last weekend of Gáldar in Flower so this is the perfect weekend to visit Gáldar
