The Plaza de España

The Plaza de España is one of the Inca nodes of the urban center in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria. Located in the middle of Avenida José Mesa y López, it is also the anteroom to the semi-pedestrian and commercial section of this great artery of the city, an outdoor shopping area par excellence in the surroundings of the Puerto-Canteras area.

In recent years, this square, where the great achievements of the sports teams of the capital of Gran Canaria are usually celebrated in a popular way, has become an open stage so that every Saturday the local and visiting public can enjoy the exhibitions of different folkloric groups of music and dance.
