Playa Blanca Carnaval 2024

The animal inspired Carnaval Event for 2024 will be held in Playa Blanca between March 8th and 10th.

Before we know it, Carnaval season will be upon Lanzarote, and after six artists submitted their designs for promotional graphics for the event it was declared that illustrator Rubén Lucas Garcia wins the honour alongside the 1,000 euro prize.

His artwork depicts a colourful representation of the Animal Themed Carnaval event, including masks, feathers and dancers alongside famous landmarks in the municipality such as the Lighthouse of Pechiguera and Castillo del Águilla. The Camel also features on the design, and shows a tribute to the maritime traditions of the region.

The artwork, dubbed 'Plastilina' is the excellent work of Murcian Illustrator, Rubén Lucas Garcia who wins the contents for the second year in a row.

Carnaval in Lanzarote is a special time of year, as it's celebrated around the island with different themes for each municipality. The parade is a prominent feature, along with live music performances and a party atmosphere throughout the town.
