Traditional Tenerife crafts: hand-made baskets from the El Palmar valley. |
Locals (and no doubt many visitors too) often spend summers following the various romerías and traditional fiestas around Tenerife; rally fans will follow those events around the island. Craft Fairs - many linked to local fiestas and are also annual events (especially the annual Los Reyes Craft Fair) - seem to be very popular, if the number of people visiting the posts about them is anything to go by. Los Silos that was part of the Fiestas of San Antonio Abad in January, has passed, but here are the places and dates of all the craft fairs in Tenerife in 2016 (including Los Reyes Crafts Fair 2017), so you can follow these too.
