Hello, folk of La Laguna and beyond! No one can say there's nothing exciting happening as the year draws to a close! One of the island's most anticipated markets, 'La Casa Efímera', is back.
If you love finding items with real soul, supporting local talent, and perhaps bagging some truly original Christmas or Three Kings' gifts, then listen up – this event is for you.
This isn't just any old market. 'La Casa Efímera' is an initiative bringing a series of cultural and market events to La Laguna, celebrating local talent. It's the perfect chance to get up close with our island's creators and artisans, and discover unique pieces you won't find just anywhere. Get ready for a unique atmosphere, with that special touch only La Laguna can provide.
First Opportunities: November
We're kicking off with the first date, so no one misses out on their dose of creativity and design. It's the ideal time to start looking at those gift ideas or treat yourself to something special.
Christmas Gifts Galore: December Dates
With December just around the corner, 'La Casa Efímera' is powering up with several key dates. If you're looking for that special something for your Christmas shopping and want to support the island's trade, here's where and when.
The first weekend of December is packed with options for you to discover the local talent we love so much. A perfect date to take your time and choose wisely:
The very next day brings another opportunity to continue exploring the most original offerings. With free entry, there's no excuse not to pop by!
Later in the week, Monday 7th December brings yet another one of these dates to find unique pieces and support the island's creators. If you're free, I encourage you to take a wander.
And to round off this December run, Tuesday 8th offers another chance to enjoy 'La Casa Efímera' and its offerings. It's an initiative that helps revitalise the city with a varied selection of design, art, and shopping.
Kicking Off 2027 in Style: January Dates
But the fun doesn't stop at Christmas! 'La Casa Efímera' extends into early 2027, giving us more opportunities to keep enjoying this special atmosphere and, why not, find that last-minute Three Kings' gift or a post-Christmas treat.
The New Year kicks off with a bang, and 'La Casa Efímera' awaits us on 2nd January, so we can start 2027 surrounded by creativity. A great way to extend the festive spirit.
The following day brings another chance to visit this cultural event, gathering the best of island talent. If you have a free afternoon, you know where to go to find something different.
And to bid farewell to 'La Casa Efímera' until next time, 4th January is our last confirmed date. A special series of events that has included dates in iconic venues, like the Hotel Aguere, making the experience even more authentic.
For more details on specific timings and any updates for these dates, it's best to keep an eye on the official quehacertenerife.com website. See you in La Laguna, hunting for that hidden gem!
