The 2022 Carnival in Maspalomas kicks off on Thursday, June 9th, with the Announcement Parade, followed by the Presentation of the candidates at the Yumbo shopping center.
The 2022 carnival in Maspalomas (San Bartolomé de Tirajana municipality) has been postponed until the month of June, taking place between the dates of June 9 and 19th, due to the Covid situation in the Canary Islands at the beginning of the year.
The theme for the Maspalomas carnival in 2022 is Magic, which is a theme that will bring out the creativity and the fantasy in a lot of the participants, who have had a lot of time to prepare their costumes.
In case you won't bring any special costume with you on holiday, you will be able to find something suitable in one of the Chinese shops or even in some of the big supermarkets.
Yumbo Shopping Center will once again be the center of the Carnival, where a complex stage has been built, to properly celebrate the carnival once again after a long break.
As usual, one of the most important events of the Carnival in Maspalomas is the Grand Carnival Parade, which will feature a hundred floats that will travel through the main streets of the municipality.
