Canarian tradition, local crafts, food and folklore are coming together again at Arona Folk Fest, held along the seafront promenade in Los Cristianos.
The event runs on selected Thursdays throughout the autumn and winter, giving visitors a chance to browse local handicrafts and products while listening to live performances from folk groups from Arona.
It is a fairly simple idea, really. A market, some traditional food, Canarian music and a seafront setting. Hard to argue with that.
