The Champions – The Long Walk 2020, Faro de Sardina – Faro de Maspalomas, over the highest mountain… #WeCrossMountains
The Champions want to raise money for local causes on Gran Canaria. They want to raise as much as possible by walking all three days coast-to-coast across the island. Epic! Their target is 1000€, can you help them get there?
Please support The Champions epic adventure through the most beautiful sub-tropical wilderness in the world. They are walking 3-days, coast-to-coast across the highest point on Gran Canaria, to show the world that no matter what 2020 has to throw at us, this island sticks together and keeps on going, sticking our best foot forward, to cross mountains. #WeCrossMountains
Come cheer them on, on the last day, from Parque Sur Maspalomas, arriving after 5pm, and walk the last leg from Holiday World at 6pm to Faro de Maspalomas at 7pm and as the sun sets, join The Big Picture on the pier in front of the lighthouse.
The Champions are an outstanding performance duo that have become one of the most beloved acts to play the venues of the south of Gran Canaria.
Occasionally accompanied by their two bright, young, beautiful boys, they embody a soulful mix of Rock’n’Roll, swing time and crooner classics, with an eclectic cherry pie and bubble gum aesthetic, and send love out into the world dressed in sharp suits, angled trilbys, open shirt and undone black tie matched to stylish hairdos, tea-length, pencil and wiggle and the smooth rockabilly sounds of the 50s and 60s
These year, Kern and Simon Champion have decided to join The Long Walk to show the world that despite all the troubles 2020 has brought to being performers working within our beleaguered Gran Canaria travel industry, they aren’t going to let anything stop them shake, rattle and rolling their way across a mountain to raise money and awareness for great causes.
