Less than a month before the eagerly awaited Los Indianos celebration, Santa Cruz de La Palma extends a warm welcome to its visitors and tourists. The heart of this unique Spanish carnival festival can be witnessed through a magnificent panoramic image displayed at the ‘kilometre zero’ of the island.
This striking display surrounds the corporeal letters of Santa Cruz de La Palma, showcasing a photograph of immense proportions captured by the renowned photojournalist Carlos Aciego. The image features the beloved character of La Negra Tomasa, joyfully dancing in the vibrant Plaza de España.
For years, Palmero Víctor Lorenzo Díaz Molina has embodied one of the most cherished and emblematic figures of the capital’s carnival, and by extension, the entire Canary Islands. His authentic and original interpretation of dance is a captivating highlight of every Monday during the Los Indianos carnival.
The Santa Cruz de La Palma Town Hall cordially invites both the local population and visitors to seize the opportunity to explore this city landmark, situated close to the port, and to capture the essence of the island’s communications hub with a memorable photograph. Don’t miss this chance to create lasting memories of your visit.
