The festival reaches its twenty fifth edition and carries the name of Antolín Pérez Pérez. It takes place in the open air in the Plaza del Rosario, within the programme of the Fiestas del Rosario in Barlovento. The line up brings together Hirahí Afonso and the Agrupación Folclórica de Barlovento with its dance company.
Canarian folk music is still very much alive in the villages of northern La Palma, and these summer gatherings are the most direct way to hear it where it belongs, with the audience seated in the square. It starts at nine in the evening, once the air has cooled, so a light jacket is a sensible thing to bring.
