International Save the Octopuses Festival – Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, Spain
November 4, 2023
FREE10:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m.
It’s not just a festival; it’s a rebellion against oppression, a battle cry for compassion and a revolution in the name of animal rights. Together, we’re rising against the tide to stop a proposed octopus farm in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, a project under development by multinational seafood company Nueva Pescanova.
This isn’t your ordinary festival – it’s a powerhouse of passion, resistance, and change. Picture this: inspiring speeches that fuel the fire within, a thrilling 3-Minute Movie Challenge by We The Free and the first Animal Rights Defender award. Oh, and did we mention the stalls? Get ready to feast your senses on a delectable array of vegan foods and goods. And let’s not forget about the pulse-pounding, soul-stirring music that’s set to take the festival by storm.
