At the Los Marinos de Valterra Socio-Cultural Center (Arrecife), the Grand
Gala for the presentation of Awards of the Lanzarote Island Competition of Urban
Christmas Activities took place.
The gala was presented by the expertise of the famous and popular Lanzarote
presenter Francisco José Navarro.
The room was unexpectedly full due to the large number of events that were
being held in the municipality on the same day and time; this coincidence of events is something
that the authorities should correct in the future.
Various promises of song and dance made the
present audience have a pleasant time.
The organization thanked the presence of the different councilors at the event, as
we also felt annoyed by the absence of several political representatives.
The following authorities were present at the event.
Ms. Amor Casteñeyra, Councilor for Commerce and Tourism of the Arrecife City Council.
Ms. Begoña Lafuente Valenzuela, Councilor for Costa Teguise of the Teguise City Council.
Ms. María del Mar Gopar, Councilor for Education of the Teguise City Council.
