Bull fighting in Tenerife?

January 31, 2007 on 1:35 am | In Santa Cruz, capital, City, Tenerife | No Comments

As many Spanish councils, the Canarian government has banned all forms of fiestas and sporting events involving bulls. So, if you were wondering if it was possible to see a bullfight here, you won’t see one here on Tenerife or any of the other Canary islands.

In the picture, the old bull-ring in Santa Cruz de Tenerife, converted years ago in an open concert hall, is going to be soon demolished. Only two fronts of the ring will remain, and the center of it will be a public park.

Tenerife Carnival 2007

January 17, 2007 on 12:34 am | In Carnival, Santa Cruz, Fun, capital, Tenerife | 3 Comments

The Tenerife Carnival is a 4-week event held across the island, with the main celebrations taking place in the North side of the island, near Santa Cruz. Said to be the best known carnival after Rio de Janeiro, the Tenerife Carnival features costumes, music, processions and street entertainment. The Carnival gets officially running with the election of the Carnival Queen, followed by a great parade a few days later and ends with the Burial of the Sardine, ritual conducted throughout the island.

The picture above is the official poster of Tenerife Carnival 2007.
