Each year, the city organises the <em>fiesta<\/em> around a central theme. These have been, for example, The Eternal Spring of Peace and Love, Magic and Fantastical Creatures, La Belle Epoque, Ancient Rome or A Night in Rio. It\u2019s up to the public to choose their favourite option for the Carnival allegory. For the immediate future, there are three alternatives: Las Vegas, raising awareness to save Planet Earth, and Disco Pop.<\/p>\n<p>In previous editions, the audience voted online during a specific period of time. On this occasion, the organisers have scheduled a TV show for <strong>26 <\/strong><strong>February<\/strong>, during which viewers will be able to cast their votes via SMS. The programme will start at 9.30 pm (Canary Islands time), and has been conceived as a kind of talent show, with the participation of Carnival&#8217;s main stars. It will be broadcast on the international channel of Televisi\u00f3n Espa\u00f1ola, as well as on Televisi\u00f3n Canaria and La 2.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>&#8220;Imagina 2022&#8221;<\/strong><\/em> (&#8220;Imagine 2022&#8221;) is the name given to this show, which will turn the <strong>Gran Canaria Arena<\/strong>\u00a0\u2014home to Club Baloncesto Gran Canaria and the arena that hosted the 2014 World Basketball World Cup\u2014 into a spectacular Carnival set.<\/p>\n<p>Murgas, comparsas, Queens and Drags will all shine their lights in this TV show, which will culminate with the result of next Las Palmas de Gran Canaria Carnival\u2019s central theme.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The public will be able to vote between Las Vegas, Planet Earth or Disco Pop.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":12590,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1,74],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-16095","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-sin-categorizar","category-news"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/lpacarnaval.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16095","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/lpacarnaval.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/lpacarnaval.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lpacarnaval.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lpacarnaval.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=16095"}],"version-history":[{"count":10,"href":"https:\/\/lpacarnaval.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16095\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":21838,"href":"https:\/\/lpacarnaval.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16095\/revisions\/21838"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lpacarnaval.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/12590"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/lpacarnaval.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=16095"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lpacarnaval.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=16095"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lpacarnaval.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=16095"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
