Bermúdez recalled that “we were the first to bet on Canarian musicians, as we did in the May Festival last year, and in these Carnivals we trust our groups again”.

To this we must add the companies that provide various services so that the Carnival takes place in the street”. “At the beginning of the year we had to make a very complicated decision, such as moving Carnival to June, and time has proved us right.”
