Buenavista del Norte Carnival 2023 - Tenerife, Canary Islands

Like most other towns in Tenerife, Buenavista del Norte celebrates its own carnival.

Although much smaller than the carnivals in Santa Cruz or Puerto de la Cruz, the event in Buenavista gathers many locals from the municipality for a weekend of family fun. There are activities and events organized for the little ones as well, especially on Sunday, when there is also a parade for the kids.
