The Arena Negra becomes a cultural and sound reference in the south of Fuerteventura
The first day of the Arena Negra Festival brought together more than 15,000 people on the beach of Gran Tarajal, in one of the most crowded Fridays of the festival in memory. The dedicated audience vibrated with Gente de Zona, one of the main headliners, as well as Paul Alone, Seguridad Social and La Ganga Calé.
The singer-songwriter Paul Alone was in charge of kicking off his melodic pop with rumba influences that began to sound at 7:30 p.m. on a beach in Gran Tarajal that progressively brought together the large audience. Originally from Pamplona, Paul Alone presented the songs from his second album, mixing beauty and romanticism with more "rogue" airs from rock, punk or rumba.
After the contagious melodies of Paul Alone, the stage of the Arena Negra Festival received the veterans Social Security, who made that generation of the seventies-eighties, the loyal audience of the Arena Negra, dance. Emblems of Spanish and Mediterranean rock, they offered a powerful live show in which they covered their forty years of hits that have become authentic anthems such as Chiquilla, which were chanted by the public.
At 11:00 p.m. it was the turn of one of the headliners of this edition of the Arena Negra Festival. The Cubans offered a frenetic live show full of hits that have reached the top of the Billboard charts (USA). Authentic anthems of Latin music, such as La Gozadera, sounded at the height of the night as part of a musical revolution that made the entire beach of Gran Tarajal move.
To top it off, La Ganga Calé offered a multicultural journey through the music of both sides of the Atlantic. The band used rhythm to connect souls, bodies and minds, as a channel to convey a message of tolerance and universality. Genres that they themselves define as neighborhood salsa, rumba & roll or flamenco fusion, which put the end and followed a Festival Arena that continues this Saturday, November 9, hoping to repeat public success with Manuel Carrasco, Nil Moliner, Marta Umpiérrez and Muyayo Rif. The daytime program will bring, from 12:00 p.m., the Informal Orchestra, Saylen, Marta Umpiérrez and Tanxugueiras.
The Cabildo de Fuerteventura organizes this edition of the Arena Negra Festival, with the collaboration of the City Council of Tuineje and the Government of the Canary Islands. A whole programme of concerts and activities designed to reach all audiences.
