The 31st edition of the Gran Canaria San Telmo Craft Fair returns on 2 January to the city\u2019s historic park, marking the start of the year with an exhibition of the work of over one hundred artisans from across the island. Through their creations, they invite visitors to celebrate Three Kings\u2019 Day with unique, one-of-a-kind pieces rooted in tradition.
\nFrom 2 to 5 January, professionals from various municipalities will take advantage of the festive season to present the work they have developed over recent months, sharing their most special creations with both local visitors and tourists. Attendees will have the opportunity to purchase items whose originality, authenticity and quality make them truly distinctive.<\/p>\n
This year, a total of 106 artisans from 17 municipalities will take part, promoting their products and explaining their working methods, the materials they use and the dedication behind each handcrafted piece. Las Palmas de Gran Canaria is the municipality with the highest number of participants (41), followed by Telde (14); Ag\u00fcimes (9); Valsequillo, Santa Br\u00edgida and Moya (5 artisans each); and Santa Luc\u00eda and Ingenio (4 each). Santa Mar\u00eda de Gu\u00eda, Firgas and Arucas contribute three artisans each, while Teror, San Bartolom\u00e9 de Tirajana, Mog\u00e1n and Agaete are represented by two artisans per municipality. La Vega de San Mateo and G\u00e1ldar each take part with one artisan.<\/p>\n
Pottery, basketry, knife-making, ceramics, jewellery, forging, wool spinning, footwear production and many other crafts will once again be represented at this central location in the capital of Gran Canaria. In total, 32 different crafts will be showcased, 11 of them traditional trades practiced by 21 artisans, all reflecting the roots and identity of the island. In parallel, the Fair will feature a varied musical programme, with groups and solo artists providing live performances throughout the venue.<\/p>\n
After 30 successful editions, the Fair once again becomes not only the island\u2019s main platform for the promotion and sale of local crafts, but also a valuable opportunity to recognise the quality and dedication behind the work of artisans associated with the Fund for Ethnography and the Development of Canarian Craftsmanship (FEDAC).<\/p>\n
The Fair will be open from 2 to 4 January 2026, from 10:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m., and on 5 January 2026 from 10:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m.\u2028Full information about the participating artisans and the accompanying programme of activities will be available at feriasartesaniagrancanaria.es.<\/p>\n
