The San Roque 2026 Festivals already have a program. The Festejos Department of the Tinajo City Council has designed a broad calendar of activities that will take place from August 6 to 21, with proposals for all ages in which music will once again be one of the main attractions.
Among the most outstanding events is the concert by K-Narias, scheduled for Friday, August 14 at 9:30 p.m., one of the most anticipated performances of the festivals. That same night, Toti Sanz will also perform, as part of a day that will also feature the return of "Sabores de Tinajo".
The patron saint festivals will begin on August 6 with the opening speech by Benedicto Cabrera Tejera, an expert in Agriculture and Pests. After the reading of the opening speech, the timple player Alexis Lemes, the guitarist Adrián Níz, and the soloist Almudena Hernández will perform, while the Grupo Alegranza will put the finishing touch to the night with a concert at the refreshment stand in San Roque square.
The program includes activities for the whole family. The little ones will be able to enjoy workshops, children's and youth games, inflatable bouncy castles, and the Children's Play Back in the Tinajo Social Hall. For adults, workshops on empleita, macramé, and self-makeup have been organized, as well as a dessert and liqueur contest.
In the sports section, the regrouping of the XXVIII Rallye Isla de los Volcanes in San Roque square, scheduled for Saturday, August 8, stands out, as well as a zumba session on August 15.
