The Day will offer a varied program that will include musical performances, workshops, games for all ages, and entertainment spaces. For this reason, attractions for all ages will be installed such as inflatables, human table football, a go-kart circuit, and a climbing wall, which will be open from 11:00 to 17:00. In addition, workshops and traditional games will be offered such as yoga, crafts, juggling, gymkhanas and a zanga tournament. There will be no shortage of shows such as performances by the batucada “Castillerinhos” and the Maspalomas Artistic Skating Club; or live music with the group ‘Cuenta Atrás’ or DJ music, starting at 15:00.
The debate to determine “Actions to improve the Department of Citizen Participation” will open at 11:30, where associations will be able to propose ideas that contribute to strengthening the services and scope of this municipal area. Among the points to be discussed, the recovery of abandoned public spaces will be addressed, where citizen initiatives will be explored to revitalize unused spaces, promoting their transformation into meeting places and community activity. In addition, examples and ideas of projects led by residents that can be developed in public spaces and that allow for enriching the leisure and recreation of the municipality will be presented.
