AS the summer sun sets on Axarquia, the popular ‘Fin de Verano’ (End of Summer) festival is gearing up to bring the season to a spectacular close. This year’s event promises a night of music and fun at Playa del Copo in Torre del Mar, with the highlight being a performance by Dominican reggaeton and merengue star Henry Méndez.
On Friday, August 30, starting at 10:00 pm, the beach will come alive with Méndez’s energetic hits, which include collaborations with stars like Pitbull and Rihanna. Before Méndez takes the stage, local pop band Corazón Inverso will kick off the evening at 8:30 pm, setting the mood with their catchy tunes.
The festivities don’t end there. After Méndez’s performance, DJ Sau will keep the party going, with the night ending with a dazzling fireworks display. Jesus Pérez Atencia, the town’s first deputy mayor, expressed excitement for the event, noting its growing significance in the region. He stated that the celebration will be free, aiming to attract a youthful crowd and create an unforgettable finale to the summer season.
