Santa Cruz Tenerife Carnival Program 2022

One of the Maids of Honour at the Opening Parade in 2019

If, by some miracle, things get back to normal and carnival takes place in its previous normal format in 2022, then, based on the schedule from previous years, and obviously, very much subject to change, carnival events in Santa Cruz de Tenerife in 2022 might look like this. We'll update when or IF the carnival organisers publish an official calendar.

Highlighted are the events and parades in the streets.
