Tomorrow, Sunday, October 20th, demonstrations calling for a change in the Canary Islands' social and tourism model will take place in tourist resorts across the archipelago and beyond. These protests are part of a continued effort to address the crisis of mass-tourism and the strain on resources that the islands are facing, following similar demonstrations held on April 20th.

Protests will take place not only in various locations throughout the Canary Islands but also in several cities across mainland Spain and Europe.
