Santa Cruz trusts that the celebration of the twelfth edition of Plenilunio, on December 4 and 5, will give the capital the necessary impetus to consolidate itself on the path of recovery. Almost a hundred events spread over 16 enclaves of the city, each of them with its corresponding COVID contingency plan, becomes the first large mass event hosted by the capital, still in a pandemic.
Yesterday, the Los Lavaderos Art Room hosted the presentation of this energizing meeting and did so by becoming an example at scale of what citizens will be able to find in the city, with urban music, more classical and popular music, theater or activities. children. “We will have leisure with sports, culture, fashion and children’s activities from 11 in the morning until 12 at night, with spaces distributed between the García Sanabria park and Anaga avenue, and between the Maritime Park and the Almeyda Museum” , explained Mayor José Manuel Bermúdez.
The councilor called on citizens to set an example of responsibility, just as the City Council does with the Plenilunio organization. “As capital we have to be an example in this, making an effort to control capacity and traceability responsibly. It is not what we want, which is a city full of people in an orderly chaos of coming and going, but it is what we have to do and we have done so, “he said.
Bermúdez defended that Santa Cruz is entering the path of recovery and it is necessary “to begin to enjoy the things we lost in the pandemic, and we do so with the largest calendar of activities that has ever been organized in the city.”
The mayor of Fiestas, Alfonso Cabello, explained that “we will have 26 hours of activities in those 16 spaces to try to leave behind a very bad year, especially for the world of culture.”
There will be 800 people linked to work on the two days of Full Moon. All the programming can be found on the web www.pleniluniosantacruz.com. As Cabello explained, “most of the spaces will be limited, so there will be a count of people to control the capacity; so that, when it is full, the access will be closed. In this way, we avoid that reservations can be made and that later people do not go, everything is done on the fly ”. In addition, “in spaces where there are chairs, such as for theatrical performances, the person will have a QR code, so that when they enter and sit down, they will read the code with their mobile and there they will register, which will help us with traceability ”. There will be staff to help viewers to do this. Mobility will also be important that weekend. Thus, as advanced by the Councilor for Security, Evelyn Alonso, the city’s car parks will offer discounts, and the Interchange “will allow free parking for four hours in combination with the use of a bus or tram.” Likewise, “there will be extra services from Titsa and Metropolitano, and in the latter case the tram will operate uninterruptedly throughout the weekend.”
Some activities stand out in the program, such as the sustainable urban sociocultural sports festival, which will combine sport, music and art, and which will be held from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. both days, or the Alisios Pop Festival, which will start on Sunday at 5 p.m. hours.
All these musical activities can be witnessed in the area of the esplanade of Avenida Marítima. The full schedule can be consulted on the DIARIO DE AVISOS website.
