EVENTS

FESTA DOS COMPADRES
 
     


Santana has evolved to a
pre-Carnival where people build
giant puppets, which are then marched
throught the town for everyone's
amusement.
A funny theatre
representation is seen as an
opportunity to say wherever goes on in
one's mind without hurting people's
feelings.


Date: February

 
   
 
 
     
     
48 HORAS A BAILAR  
     
"48 Horas a Bailar" bring to the village
all the foklore groups, not only from
the island but also from other places.
It's a wonderful party to be seen.
 
     
   
     
     

Religious festivals of Santana and
Santíssimo, including the traditional
shak of food and drinks with the
traditional kebab (chucks of beef are
skewed on twigs of laurel) are our
emigrants favourite.


Their favourite time to visit our island
is in July and August.
