BLUME-FESTIVAL 2024 - ... how colourful is that?!

Last but not least: → The final report of the 62^nd BLUME FESTIVAL Gran Canaria 2024 is especially dedicated to the dedicated Canarian hosts!
In particular to the many children, young people, but increasingly also movement-conscious adults, who created great stage shows with high levels of gymnastic performance, imaginative show creations and even more sparkling passion. The whole island of Gran Canaria was in rhythmic motion, enthusiastic spectators in the island's capital Las Palmas, in the well-known tourist destinations such as Telde, Santa Brigida or Maspalomas, where the opening gala and two other show acts took place in the Yumbo-Comercial Centre, a large audience cheered the performances in the mostly full stands. For many tourists on the ‘island of eternal spring’, a visit to the festival has also become a highly welcome cultural addition to their itinerary - some have been coming for years during the ‘colourful BLUME Festival Season’ ...

♦ Matinal Colegio Marpe Las Palmas -

this large public school with more than 1,000 pupils is a traditional annual host for flower festival shows:

Spain is generally recognised as the "Carmen nation"
and also has a good reputation as a traditional country of gymnastics!

As far as gymnastics training is concerned, BLUME organiser Jesus Telo Rodriguez can fully
rely on the head of the Club Deportivo Gimnasia Ritmica Elegance Villa de Santa Brigida.

→ Gymnastics in all its facets: - from recreational sport to competitive gymnastics
rhythmic gymnastics - the Canary Islands offer everything, highly developed!

♦ TELDE - Desportivo "Rita Hernandez" - - without Gran Canaria's second largest city
there would be no flower festival - the whole city is already living the ‘flower flair’.

When the BLUME Festival was founded in 1960, there was almost no such thing as popular sport. In the meantime, sporting activities in the adult sector, such as here in Telde, have developed enormously - also a special merit of the festival idea!
