Cultural Festivals, Concerts and the Arts

The island's residents haven't forgotten their Spanish roots. They still manage to enjoy the culture of the Canary Islands, celebrating festivals native to both regions. Carnival is a time for large celebrations during February and March. A specific theme is selected every year to help residents enjoy a series of galas and parades leading to the choosing of a Carnival King. Music festivals are also common on the island, with a large yearly festival held in the capital city of Puerto del Rosario that features the best of the local musical talent. Along with festivals and concerts, visitors to the island can enjoy several museums that are available for exhibition viewing. Museums open to the public include the Atalayita Archaeological Interpretation Centre and the Salt Museum. An open-air sculpture park, which is located in the capital and contains sculptures constructed by artists from around the world, may also entice art lovers.

For those who enjoy sports, matches featuring Canarian sports are viewable. These sports include the Canarian martial art Juego del Palo and Canarian wrestling, which is done within a ring of sand known as the terrero. The wrestlers attempt to knock one another down to win the match. There are 14 terreros on the island, one in almost every town.

All that's needed to begin enjoying everything the island has to offer is a quick reservation on ebookers to order airline tickets and accommodation at one of the hotels in Fuerteventura.
