Festival CLE 2026 

CLE 2026 places Canarian and Latin American repertoire at the heart of the festival, with the Canary Islands acting as a historic bridge between Europe, Africa and the Americas. The festival revives seldom-performed works, supports new creation and brings together roots music, chamber, contemporary and orchestral projects. Cuba is the guest country for this edition. Yudania Gómez Heredia will conduct the Classical Laguna Experience Orchestra, with Alexis Cárdenas (violin), Verónica Cagigao (marimba) and Ernesto Alemán (piano) as soloists. The programme also features Índice y Medio, Dúo Fraute, Alexander Álvarez, Cuarteto Imprevisto, Cuba y Canarias en Punto, Dúo Smetti and Sigma Project, alongside encounters with artists and composers. Through concerts, dialogue and new creation, CLE will once again turn La Laguna and the Canary Islands into a meeting place for memory, identity and contemporary music.

Free admission until capacity is reached!
