Fiestas de San Marcos

29th April 2019

Celebrated towards the end of the month, Romería de San Marcos in Tegueste is a traditional event and is great fun for the whole family to enjoy. Towns and villages all over the island hold their own romerías, but the one in Tegueste is bigger and livelier than any other. The celebrations begin with a parade through the main street when the locals hand out traditional Canarian food from the floats. The party then moves to the square in front of the church where live bands take to the stage and drinks are served well into the night.

Fiestas de la Cruz - Los Realjos

This celebration kicks off with an enormous firework display which takes place between Calle del Medio and Called del Sol. This is also accompanied by cultural and sporting events and also what is known as "battle of the flowers" where cars decorated with flowers roam the streets. Fiestas de la Cruz is celebrated at the beginning of the month in this village, when locals get together from the two main streets to have a firework competition.

Fiestas de la Cruz - Puerto de la Cruz

3rd May 2019

The traditional towns in the north of the island, such as Santa Cruz and Puerto de la Cruz decorate the streets with huge crosses made out of flowers. If you plan on visiting any of these places, bringing your camera is an absolute must. As well as the floral decorations, the town also puts on many street parties with locals dressed in authentic Canarian clothes offering typical dishes of the island.
