The program will kick off at 10:00 AM in Plaza Pío XII in the Titerroy neighborhood with a school session for students. Young attendees will have the opportunity to discover contemporary dance through scenic experiences designed to stimulate creativity and artistic sensitivity. Participants include Ana Melero, Arnau Pérez, and the Grupo de Mayores de Tías.
In the afternoon, starting at 6:00 PM, Plaza de Las Palmas, next to the San Ginés church, will host a new event open to the public. The program will feature dance pieces such as ‘Pies de gallina’ by Ana Melero and Luna Sánchez; ‘Vibra!’ by Arnau Pérez; and ‘La memoria del agua’ by the Escuela de Danza Reinier Alfonso. Additionally, the Parranda Marinera de Buches will perform coastal seguidillas, the ‘Malagueña de Arrecife’, and the ‘Sorondongo de Los Navegantes’.
The Councilor for Culture, Abigail González, expressed her satisfaction in contributing from the City Council to bring contemporary dance out of its usual stages and closer to citizens. "We are turning our squares into meeting places with culture and artistic talent," she stated.
The Traslación Festival, founded in 2018 by its artistic director Acerina H. Toledo, aims to showcase dance and bring it to various locations in Lanzarote and other islands. The initiative combines premieres, new creations, and pieces selected through an open call and the Acieloabierto Network, fostering the dissemination of work by companies and creators from different places. By collaborating in this new edition, Cultura Arrecife reinforces its commitment to accessible and diverse cultural programming.
