The excitement generated by the arrival of an influential pianist in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria has surpassed all expectations, prompting the Santa Catalina Classics festival organizers to expand the concert's capacity.

The public's response in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria to the upcoming performance by a world-class pianist has been so overwhelming that the organizers of the Santa Catalina Classics festival have decided to increase the number of available seats. This measure aims to meet the high demand for one of the most anticipated cultural events of the year in the Canary Islands.
The festival, promoted by Barceló Hotel Group, has announced the installation of two new stands at the venue, after tickets for the musician's concert were close to selling out in record time. The organization has publicly expressed its gratitude for the excellent reception, noting that demand has far exceeded initial forecasts.
The concert will take place on June 19 in the gardens of the Santa Catalina, a Royal Hideaway Hotel, in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria. The artist will offer an intimate recital, alone with his piano, opting for a close and exclusive format that will allow the audience to enjoy the performance just a few meters from the musician. This proposal is described as “a commitment to the luxury of intimacy,” transforming the historic hotel setting into a space designed for experiencing classical music in a much more emotional and direct way.
Considered one of the most important figures in contemporary classical music, the pianist has significantly contributed to bringing the piano closer to new generations of spectators worldwide. His presence in the Canary Islands represents a major milestone for the Santa Catalina Classics festival, which in recent editions has reinforced its commitment to attracting top-tier international artists.
With the expanded capacity, the festival has released a new batch of tickets, which can now be purchased through the official website of the event. The organization warns that the sales pace remains very high and recommends that those interested in attending purchase their tickets “as soon as possible” to secure their attendance before they sell out again.
