Boka emerges from Lanzarote, with the endorsement of the prestigious chef Germán Blanco, as a further proposal ambitious than conventional catering at large events
Imagine going to your favorite band's concert and, while, being able to taste the best of local products elevated to gastronomy, instead of the sandwich revenio o at fast food (scarce) rigor. Well, that's what we're going to tell you about..
Lava Live Festival 2026 he wants the experience to neither begin nor end on stage. The musical event will reinforce its identity as an event born from Lanzarote with its own gastronomic proposal, THE BOOK, designed to make food a recognizable part of the festival and not just an added service. Under the motto “From the best land, the best BOKA comes out”, The brand proposes a line of snacks linked to local products and the island's pantry.
The bet is interesting because it was born in Lanzarote, but it does not necessarily stay in Lanzarote. The same organization that promotes Lava Live, TSC Group, is behind other large formats such as Live Crab and large-scale concerts, among them the next of Sting, which makes this experience a possible reference to rethink the gastronomy of large events in Canary Islands. It's not just about feeding thousands of people, but to take advantage of these massive audiences to project territory, gastronomic product and culture.
THE BOOK part of a clear idea: Any event that aspires to represent an island must also talk about what that island grows, transforms and knows how to do well. Farmers, ranchers, producers and processors are part of that value chain. That's why, Lava Live wants to integrate gastronomy into its brand story, in collaboration with areas linked to the economic promotion of the Cabildo of Lanzarote and in tune with the initiatives that promote local products and the primary sector.
To develop this proposal, the festival features the prestigious chef German Blanco (Sea breeze, White beach, Lanzarote), which has designed an offer adapted to the rhythm of the concerts: snappy bites, tasty, easy to consume and with personality. Burgers made from quality meats originating from the island, bread preparations, salads based on local produce, local potatoes with sauces, Fresh proposals and island-inspired creations will be part of a culinary line designed to eat well without abandoning the musical experience..
Eduardo Ferrer, CEO of TSC Group, even think of a type place “The Little House”, popularized by Bad Bunny, but like a restaurant terrace, “where you can even have a quiet dinner once the concert is over to prolong the experience”.
The value of THE BOOK It is precisely at that intersection between functionality and story. It does not intend to move a restaurant to the premises, but to build a festival gastronomy with roots, capable of accompanying music and, at the same time, tell Lanzarote. If the model works, It can open an interesting way for other large events to incorporate local products as part of their identity., from Granca Live to the great international concerts that come to the islands.
In an increasingly competitive calendar, Lava Live seeks to differentiate itself not only because of the artists, but for the complete experience. Music, landscape, Local product and hospitality can be part of the same narrative. And in that equation, each BOKA can be more than just a bite: a direct way to put Lanzarote in the mouths of thousands of people.
