The Haría festivities move into their busiest week with a programme that packs some of the most eagerly awaited events of the town's festive calendar into 18 to 24 June. Music, folk traditions, sport, community gatherings and traditional celebrations will mark a few days in which residents and visitors will once again fill the streets of the village.
The programme will open on Thursday 18 with the Fiesta de los Mayores (celebration for older residents) and continue on Friday with the 22nd edition of the Festival Folclórico Malpaís de la Corona, which this year comes under the title Contra todo mal. The event will pay tribute to the healing women of Lanzarote and will feature groups from Gran Canaria and Tenerife alongside local ensembles. The same day will also see the presentation of the Casa del Mayor project.
Saturday 20 brings two of the highlights of the festivities: the 6th Aday Ponce Lemes Veterans' Football Memorial and the 30th Romería de Haría (patron-saint pilgrimage), which will bring together folk groups, parrandas (traditional Canarian folk bands) and pilgrims in one of the best-attended events on the programme. The schedule continues with the gathering of dance schools, the Concierto San Juan 2026 and culminates on 23 June with the Premios Haría awards ceremony and the traditional Noche del Fuego, which will include the burning of Facundo, the Danza del Fuego, fireworks and a verbena (open-air street party). The celebrations will close on 24 June with the religious service and the procession through the streets of the town.
