The northern coast of the island once again became a rock epicenter with the celebration of the Rock & Road festival. The event, in its third edition, drew approximately 2,500 people from various parts of La Palma, solidifying its unique proposal that blends music, road culture, and the caravan spirit.
The Puerto Espíndola location provided a distinctive stage, set against the backdrop of the Atlantic Ocean with a waterfall cascading behind the stage, surrounded by local vegetation. The musical day kicked off with a performance by Valdivia, offering a touch of intimate pop and indie. The intensity gradually built with the arrival of Obús, a Spanish heavy metal icon with over 40 years of stage experience.
Following them, Argentine artist Coti presented his pop-rock repertoire, maintaining the energy without losing intensity. The night concluded with Celtas Cortos, who closed the event with their characteristic folk-rock and crowd-pleasing classics. The band describes their career as “40 years of telling stories”.
The attendee diversity was a constant, featuring rock enthusiasts from other municipalities, locals from the north of the island, and participants of the Rock & Road Van Experience from all the archipelago's islands, many of whom were returning for the third consecutive year. The festival is sponsored by Islas Canarias Latitud de Vida, the Cabildo de La Palma, and the Ayuntamiento de San Andrés y Sauces.
