Ritmo y Armonía 2026 – Santa Cruz Carnival Evening Parade
Ritmo y Armonía is one of the most popular nights of the Santa Cruz Carnival. On 14 February 2026 the best comparsas of Tenerife compete in a parade of costume, choreography, drums, and live music. It is the perfect way to feel the real carnival atmosphere without spending the whole night in Santa Cruz. Please note: this transfer and especially the reserved seatings sells out every year long before the date, so don’t wait too long, book in time!
What to Expect from the Evening
The event takes place in the streets of Santa Cruz, where access by private car is extremely difficult during carnival. With Club Canary you travel from the south of Tenerife by bus, are dropped close to the route thanks to special access permits, enjoy the Ritmo y Armonía parade and then return comfortably to your hotel.
Evening Program – Ritmo y Armonía Bus Trip
Departure from the south
Pick-up from the main tourist areas in the south of Tenerife starts at approximately 17:45. Several buses operate this night, and we group guests by hotel area to keep the ride smooth and as fast as possible, even with the heavy carnival traffic.
Arrival & parade experience
Our buses have special permission to approach the carnival zone, so you avoid the long walk and impossible parking of Santa Cruz. Once there, you dive straight into the parade: powerful drum lines, glitter costumes, synchronized comparsa dancers and non-stop Latin rhythms. If you chose reserved seating, you watch everything from a podium with a clear view of the route and nearby toilet access; if not, you are free to move around and enjoy the street atmosphere.
Return to your hotel
After the last comparsas pass by, you meet again at the bus at the agreed location. Departure from Santa Cruz is planned between 22:45 and 23:00, so in normal traffic conditions most guests are back at their hotel in the south of Tenerife shortly after midnight.
Exact pick-up times, points and the final return time will be confirmed closer to the date in the “Bus times” section of your booking.
Ritmo y Armonia Prices and Ticket Types
The current price for the round-trip bus transfer to Ritmo y Armonía 2026 is 45€ per adult, including hotel pickup and return drop-off. Prices may increase as we get closer to the event due to limited availability and higher transport costs. There is a child rate of 29€ (up to 11 years old), but children are only accepted on request. To book a child ticket you must contact our team by WhatsApp first. We prefer to keep this experience mainly for adults, as it is a later evening event with large crowds.
Reserved Seating Options for Ritmo y Armonia Event
Seeing Ritmo y Armonía from the street is possible but can be very crowded and it is often difficult to find a good spot. Club Canary therefore offers the option to add reserved seating on the official podium.
- Reserved chair with bus: supplement of 35€ per person on top of the bus price. You travel with our bus and have your own seat in the grandstand.
- Chair (without bus): Sold out.
The podium area offers a clearer view of the comparsas, a more comfortable space and access to nearby toilets. It is not recommended for guests with reduced mobility or wheelchairs, as access involves steps and narrow passages. Small children may also find it difficult to stay seated for the whole parade.
Club Canary works several months in advance to secure these seats. Official seat tickets issued by the authorities are normally released closer to the date of the event. After they are confirmed, we will send the final tickets and all necessary details to your email and WhatsApp.
Bottom Line
If you’re staying in the south of Tenerife and want to experience Ritmo y Armonía without the stress, this bus trip is the smart choice. No parking hassle, no guessing routes, and the option of reserved podium seating so you actually see the dancers, drums and comparsas instead of the back of someone’s head.
Booking with Club Canary means a local team that runs this every year. We organise multiple buses, group guests by hotel area, and handle the logistics while others struggle with traffic and public transport.
