The Gospel Canarias Festival has managed to position this international genre as a must-see during the November and December dates in the Canary Islands. It is one of the most emblematic events that the islands have, maintaining its level of quality and diversification, since the best groups and choirs of this genre are joined by the fact that it is offered on several islands, including Tenerife, Gran Canaria, Lanzarote, La Gomera and La Palma, and in different settings.
Gospel, an incomparable feeling. The manifestation of love, joy, liberation and good energy that through choral voices make us feel a unique experience with each performance, and this time it could not be less.
As every year, we welcome the best international gospel voices at the Gospel Canarias Festival. In 2019 we welcomed great groups such as The London Community, considered by many to be the best gospel choir in Europe, with more than ten albums and countless concerts in its long history, which spans more than three decades.
In addition, we had the participation of groups from our islands such as: Latonius Gospel Choir. In 2021, it was groups such as «Harlem Gospel Choir» or «Joyful Gospel Singers«, together with Latonius and Naturally, among others, who took to the festival stages to make attendees dance and feel the rhythm of gospel.
This year 2022, we are betting on international groups and artists who have already been part of our festival, such as Soweto Gospel Choir, Bazile Meade or Clarence Bekker and others who are making their debut, such as Bridget Bazile with her show «Star of Gospel». Without forgetting new projects with the many artists we have been working with for several years, such as Naturally or Gospel Shine Voices.
We invite you to live this wonderful experience, so vibrant and full of energy. Let yourself be excited!
