This week is starred by the music of the first big Friday of the Arrecife en Vivo Festival. The first of its concerts will be by Rocío Saiz in the Islote de Fermina, followed by that of Jela from Tenerife in the Parque Islas Canarias. The Villa Pipol batucada will continue the route along the marina towards the Marina Lanzarote marina, where Triángulo de Amor Bizarro will perform. The Cruise Ship Pier will host the last shows of the night, the concerts of Zahara, La Gore and the session of Laiv x Aquiles Orquídea.
In addition, there are two other free musical proposals on the island such as the concert by singer-songwriter Julia Rodríguez this Saturday in El Golfo and the Noon Festival on the same day at twelve noon with the clarinet quartet La Bocayna.
In the film section there are separate proposals from Cine Club Lanzarote and Cine Buñuel, as well as a screening of silent film and live piano at the Casa de la Cultura Agustín de la Hoz. Humor comes from Millán Salcedo and magic, from Jorge Blass. For theater lovers, the Somos company presents 'La comunidad de la naranja' in Tías.
Finally, the agenda highlights the international event Equinox Lanzarote, which celebrates the balance between light and darkness during the autumn equinox, with immersive art, talks, astronomical observation and sensory experiences.
La Voz offers you this summary of the most interesting cultural events of the week in Lanzarote with the collaboration of the Department of Culture of the Government of the Canary Islands.

Around her, her family must accompany her in her agony. After her death, life must continue.
