This event, which has become a cultural landmark in Teror, is the result of the effort and dedication of a family that has kept the tradition alive. The current organizers, father and son, have taken over from their ancestors to ensure the continuity of this annual pyrotechnic representation.

For this year's edition, scheduled to start at 10:30 PM, a combination of pyrotechnics and scenic elements has been prepared. The Canarian Militias Historical Reenactment Association and Múdate Studios Center will contribute with the play And so the sea came to Teror, adding a theatrical component to the spectacle in Sintes Square.

This family's tradition with pyrotechnics dates back to the late 19th century, when they began to be in charge of the fireworks during the festivities of Saint Joseph and the Cross. It was around 1930 when they decided to move the recreation of the Burning of the Ship and the Castle, which they already performed at the Naval festivities, to Teror, where it has endured to this day.

Initially, the event was held in Pino Square, but due to the growing influx of public, it was moved to Sintes Square. The organizers point out that the Burning of the Ship and the Castle stopped being performed at the Naval festival, making Teror the only place where this representation can be enjoyed.

The family, who also runs the El Pilar pyrotechnics company since the 1980s, is responsible for other pyrotechnic shows on the island, such as the San Lorenzo fireworks. Their main wish is for this family tradition, which they consider their hallmark, to continue for many more generations. The recreation is a mix of theater, dance, music, and a pyrotechnic display that culminates in a fireworks battle, always celebrated after Cross Day, although this year it is brought forward one day because it falls on a Sunday.
