The 2 Festival of the Banana is on today at the Troya bridge from 8am til 5pm. There's various tastings of banana drinks and food and banana sculptures!! There's also demonstrations of Lucha Canaria and Juego del Palo. If you've nothing else to do today, it's always something different!

Yes sorry, I think so. It said Puente de Troya, Arona. Is there another Troya somewhere? I'm guessing it's near the hotel Troya.

Runs from 8 am to 5 pm near Puente de Troya – the wooden bridge on the beach by Veronicas.

The leaning tower of Pisa perhaps? That's all I can come up with.

I wandered down as I was in the area ... must have been too late for the banana sculptures .... very little happening in fact: some stalls with local honey, handmade lace etc and about people gathered around a mobile bar
