Music Hall Tavern (MHT): the drag show with dinner

If you're searching for "MHT Tenerife", this is it: Music Hall Tavern, a comedy drag dinner show that has been on the island for more than 15 years. It has moved back to the centre of Playa de las Américas and now performs at Vivo Show Bar, Avenida Rafael Puig Lluvina 7. Plenty of guides and maps still put it at its old venue.

There are four performances a week; in October, Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday. Doors at 19:00, dinner at 19:45, show at 20:45, interval at 22:00 and out at around 23:00.

Prices on the official MHT website: €49 adults (13+), €39 children aged 4 to 12 and free up to age 3, although you have to declare them when booking. It includes a three-course dinner served at the table, a souvenir photo and the show; drinks are extra. VIP costs €15 more per person: front seats, priority entry, a welcome drink, programme and lanyard, with 24 places per show.

Pirámide de Arona: History, not Carmen Mota

The Pirámide de Arona is the auditorium of the former Mare Nostrum Resort, now Spring Hotels: 1,587 seats on Avenida de las Américas, opposite the Hard Rock Cafe. It has no resident company; each promoter programmes and sells its own shows. Carmen Mota's flamenco isn't on, however often it still turns up in searches.

What's on now is History – The Evolution of Music: two and a half hours of live music from Mozart to Michael Jackson, with 8 musicians, 8 singers and 15 dancers and acrobats. It's ticket only, with no food or drink. Seats aren't numbered and the bar is small: have dinner first (the Hard Rock is opposite) and arrive early to get a good seat.
