The #LigaBBVAExperience lands in island paradise

The third edition of the #LigaBBVAExperience is upon us and will be serving up a dream three-day stay on the island of Gran Canaria. A paradisiacal setting where – thanks to LaLiga and the international broadcasters who show the league in Ukraine and Georgia – six lucky fans have embarked on a fantastic cultural and footballing experience that will culminate in watching the clash between UD Las Palmas and Real Madrid live, in the flesh, as guests of honour.

However, there is still a long way to go until the big match and plenty of action to come beforehand. Kyrylo, Daryna, Fedir, Alexander, Irakliv and Revaz have received their welcome packs, complete with personalised Las Palmas and Real Madrid shirts, plus scarves, banners and face paint, and they are all set for a weekend that they will never forget.

"Being here is a miracle. We're football-mad and this is the best prize we could have won," is the word from the excited fans, the winners of contests held in their respective countries by Silknet and Trkua. The weather and cuisine, the sea and the breathtaking mountain scenery offered by Gran Canaria make this an unbeatable destination in which to see their dreams come true.

The #LigaBBVAExperience has arrived in Las Palmas looking to replicate the success of the previous editions in Malaga and Valencia. One of LaLiga's most ambitious international projects, its goal is to further the league's ongoing global expansion and to bring fans from all over the world closer to the best competition on the planet.
