The Technological and Renewable Energy Institute (ITER) will host the tenth edition of the Eólica festival, returning to Tenerife on October 16 and 17 with a focus on music and sustainability.

The event will feature 68 artists across four stages. The program blends club culture with outreach activities on renewable energy, robotics, and biodiversity, aiming to connect artistic creation with current environmental challenges.
The ITER site in Granadilla de Abona will serve as a sustainability laboratory during the festival. Electricity consumption will be covered by the facility's own renewable sources and certified green energy, utilizing high-efficiency equipment and renewable fuels.
The organization has implemented a waste management plan including reusable materials and carbon footprint tracking. Additionally, free shuttle services will be provided from Santa Cruz de Tenerife and Los Cristianos to promote sustainable mobility.
Friday's schedule includes a special opening for school groups, allowing students to participate in workshops on technology and responsible habits. The festival will also feature an EcoMarket for local products and a charity auction supporting social and environmental projects in the Canary Islands.
