Lanzarote captivates not only with its volcanic landscapes and dreamlike beaches, but also with its varied cultural and sporting calendar. Throughout the year, the island hosts events that attract international visitors as well as those looking to discover its most authentic side. Among the highlights are the demanding Ironman Lanzarote, the colourful Arrecife Carnival and the well-established Lanzarote Film Festival.

Ironman Lanzarote: the toughest triathlon in the world
Held every May, Ironman Lanzarote is considered one of the most challenging triathlons on the planet. Open-water swimming, cycling through volcanic terrain and a marathon under the Canary sun put athletes from around the world to the test. Beyond the race itself, it is a unique sporting spectacle that places the island on the international stage.
Travellers coming for the event will find BLUESEA Costa Teguise Gardens a comfortable accommodation option close to many key areas of the competition.

Arrecife Carnival: colour and tradition
Arrecife’s Carnival is one of the most anticipated celebrations of the year in Lanzarote. Dance troupes, music groups, parades and concerts fill the capital with life, blending tradition with festivity in a unique atmosphere. For several days, the city becomes a stage of music, costumes and joy that captivates both locals and visitors.
Those wishing to enjoy the festivities while resting later in a peaceful area will find BLUESEA Los Fiscos, in Puerto del Carmen, an excellent choice.

Lanzarote Film Festival: culture on the big screen
Every spring, the island becomes a meeting point for film enthusiasts with the Lanzarote Film Festival.
