Día de las Alfombras (Carpet Day) in La Orotava |
There are no public holidays in June and the biggest event of the month, usually, is Corpus Christi with the Día de las Alfombras (Carpet Day), which this year falls on 23 Jun 2022.
This date, however, is also the Noche de San Juan (Eve of San Juan), which this year also coincides with the start of carnival in the streets of Santa Cruz. Thursday, June 23, starting at 9:00 p.m., will be when, atypically, the revelries begin with the Burial of the Sardine.
Leading up to that, it is going to be a busy month with all of the carnival contests, which will kick off on Friday, 3 June with the Carnival Inauguration Gala.
Municipal holidays this month are:
- 13 June: Festivity of San Antonio de Padua in Granadilla de Abona
- 23 June: Infraoctava of Corpus Christi in La Orotava (Carpet Day)
- 24 June: Festivity of San Juan Bautista in Guía de Isora, Los Silos and San Juan de la Rambla
- 29 June: Festivity of San Pedro Apóstol in El Sauzal and Güímar
