Netflix film crew have to leave Lanzarote due to ‘lack of permits’

The filming of the new series 'Welcome to Eden' for Netflix will have to leave Lanzarote earlier than planned, due to a "lack of permits" for filming on the Caletón Blanco from Costas, as revealed by the mayor of Teguise, Oswaldo Betancort, in a press release earlier today. 'Welcome to Eden' is the next big Spanish blockbuster on the streaming platform, that started filming on the island on February 22^nd.

According to the mayor: "These people were going to spend two million euros in Lanzarote but, due to a lack of permits, they now have to go to Teruel in the mainland, to film in a studio pretending that they are on the island, and we are losing the investment in the local economy.”
