Adeje is gearing up for the foodie event of the year, the Degusta.me Gastronomy Fair, this Saturday in the Calle Grande and Plaza de España from 4pm to 1am. Gastronomy, craft beers and wines from the vineyards of the region will be the stars of the afternoon and evening.
The council has organised a series of musical performances from La Chalana, Los Coquillos, Candeladixilan and the Vid Band to accompany it, and there will also be a dinosaur parade, a children's playground, bouncy castles and children's workshops.
In the evening members of the public can enjoy the food and drink products on offer by purchasing tickets and the Degusta.me glass at the point of sale. This initiative is promoted by the departments of economic activity and job creation under councillors Mercedes Vargas and Alberto Álvarez Jiménez.
