Maspalomas Carnaval 2026

From 10 to 22 March 2026, the south of Gran Canaria bursts into a colorful spectacle of music, dance, creativity and joyful energy: the International Maspalomas Carnaval! For twelve days Playa del Inglés transforms into a lively, festive backdrop where visitors from all over the world come together to celebrate life. The streets fill with music and dance, the atmosphere is exuberant and cheerful, and everyone is welcome regardless of age, background or outfit. Because that is the magic of carnaval: freedom, connection and fun.


Color, Culture and Romance Under the Sun

Maspalomas Carnaval is known for its openness, extravagance and pure festive joy. One of the absolute highlights is the grand carnival parade on Saturday 21 March, a vibrant procession of floats, dance groups and costumes that turns the streets of Playa del Inglés into a buzzing celebration. This is the moment when everyone lets loose, dressed up and laughing, dancing under the warm Canarian sun.

Not to be missed is the legendary Drag Queen competition, a glamorous and bold show full of glitter, creativity and daring. What began in Maspalomas in the 1980s has now become an icon of carnaval, a celebration of self‑expression and creativity that brings the essence of carnaval to life.
