The capital of Lanzarote will host the Arrecife en Vivo festival during September and October of 2026. The event, which will unfold across four open-air stages located in the historic center, aims to be a meeting point for various artistic expressions and a forum for reflection.
The program will kick off on Saturday, September 5, with the AEV Channel Gala, a day dedicated to showcasing the talent of local artists from Lanzarote. Subsequently, on Fridays, September 18 and 25, and October 2 and 9, performances by bands with diverse backgrounds and styles will take place.
“"This edition's lineup includes established artists who have enormous significant weight in the history of national music and very powerful emerging bands that will achieve mainstream recognition in a few months, we are sure. We like that balance between the known and the discoveries. When the Arrecife en Vivo audience is surprised, a very special energy is created."
Among the confirmed artists for the first routes are Ultraligera, Repion, and The Rapants for September 18. On September 25, Chambao 25 Aniversario, Alfredo Piedrafita, MFC Chicken, and The Anger Price will perform. Finally, on October 2, the audience can enjoy Evaristo, Def Con Dos, and María Iskariot.
In addition to the concerts, the festival will include a street parade animated by a street orchestra that will guide the audience between the different stages. The Apoyamos la cantera day has also been confirmed, dedicated to music schools and activities for children and adolescents in Lanzarote, which will take place on the morning of Saturday, October 10.
The festival is a production by Hsmith Solutions and is supported by various entities, including the Tourism area of Arrecife City Council, the Culture and Youth area of the Cabildo de Lanzarote, the Society for the External Promotion of Lanzarote, the Art, Culture and Tourism Centers of Lanzarote, Promotur Turismo de Canarias, and Proexca, among other collaborators.
