The Santa María de Guía City Council is celebrating UNIFEST 2026 next Friday, September 25th, a festive day of music and youth gathering to be held in the Plaza Grande starting at 5:00 PM.
The initiative, with free admission, aims to consolidate the municipality as a University City and create new leisure and participation opportunities for young people. The event will feature an extensive musical program including performances by DJ Brian de la Cruz, Q Chimba, DJ Aythami Campos, Kilian Viera, Furia Joven, and DJ Estro.
UNIFEST 2026 is part of the City Council's strategy to strengthen Guía's connection with the university sector, with the collaboration of the Universidad Fernando Pessoa Canarias.

"Guía has an extraordinary opportunity to continue growing as a University City. We want the university community to be part of Guía, to participate in our social, cultural, and commercial life, and to find here an open, dynamic city with proposals also designed for young people."
“
"UNIFEST is born precisely with that spirit, to bring university life to the streets, to meet in the heart of the city, and to create spaces where students, young people from the municipality, and residents can enjoy together."
Mayor Alfredo Gonçalves expressed gratitude for the involvement of the Universidad Fernando Pessoa Canarias, highlighting the importance of strengthening collaboration to develop projects that benefit both students and the entire community of Guía.
The celebration in the Plaza Grande reinforces the municipal commitment to bring youth activities to the city center and revitalize its streets and establishments. With UNIFEST 2026, Guía advances its University City project, aiming to generate educational, cultural, social, and economic synergies.
