Saint John Night on Gran Canaria with Mur Hotels

The Night of Saint John, June 23, is around the corner and with it also the Holidays of Saint John, a very ancient festivity in which the arrival of the summer solstice is celebrated. The big protagonist of the Night of Saint John is the bonfire, which not only tributes the sun, but also purifies the sins of men.

This holiday is celebrated in many areas of Europe. In Spain this magic night is related to the most ancient traditions and Spanish legends.

In Las Palmas of Grand Canaria the night of Saint John has a very special delight: The capital of the island celebrates at the same date also its foundation. This year at 22:30 hrs begins the Tropical Concert at the Plaza of the Music and at 24:00 hrs the annually fireworks start at the city beach of Las Canteras.

Do not miss out on this magic night and combine this holiday with a special stay at our MUR HOTELS. Special offers can be found as always on our website www.murhotels.com.
