LAS PALMAS DE GRAN CANARIA
A WINDOW ONTO THE WORLD
Las Palmas de Gran Canaria with its 400,000
inhabitants is a vibrant modern city which also has a contrasting historical
centre with lovely old buildings and a well-developed tourist infrastructure
to accommodate the most demanding visitor.
Las Palmas de Gran Canaria has always been an
important junction and commercial centre on the routes between Europe,
Africa and America. This international vocation has made it the ideal
spot for holding meetings both at national and international level.
With good communications by air and sea and
20 kilometers away from the city, its airport has daily
links to the main cities in Europe and America.
The city's endowment of cultural and leisure activities
and the possibility to attend exhibitions, lectures,
theatre and concerts all the year round, provide a
further incentive to choose this city, giving whatever
event may be organised here even greater guarantee of
success.
It is worth noting that according to the North American
Travel Association journal, the capital of Gran Canaria
has the best climate in the world, with an annual
average temperature of 23ºC making possible the bath
in its beaches at any time of the year.
