Lanzarote Nightlife

Find the best Lanzarote Nightlife

If you think Lanzarote is all about sun, sea, sand and sightseeing, you will be glad to know there is so much to do at night in Lanzarote. In fact, the Lanzarote nightlife on offer goes far beyond the many bars and restaurants, with live entertainment, music, family nights out and some of the most popular Lanzarote shows.

What makes the nightlife in Lanzarote special is the talent on the island, with musicians, singers, dancers, comedians and entertainers performing throughout the main resorts. Whether you want a few drinks overlooking the sea, live music, a late-night bar or a complete evening show, there is something for all ages.

Two of the main Lanzarote shows are based in Puerto Del Carmen, which is also the liveliest resort when it comes to Lanzarote nightlife. If you are staying in Costa Teguise or Playa Blanca you don't need to miss out, as transport options are available for both Music Hall Tavern Lanzarote and Rancho Texas Country Night.

If you want to include a proper night out during your holiday, these two Lanzarote shows offer completely different experiences. Music Hall Tavern is all about comedy, music and a spectacular drag show, while Rancho Texas Country Night is a family-friendly Wild West evening with live entertainment, dancing, food and drinks.

Lanzarote shows and evening entertainment

One of the best ways to experience Lanzarote nightlife is to book a complete evening show. Instead of simply heading out for a meal or a few drinks, you can enjoy a full night of entertainment with food included and, depending on the show you choose, drinks and transport options too.

The two main Lanzarote nightlife shows available to book with us are Music Hall Tavern Lanzarote and Rancho Texas Country Night. Both have been established on the island for years and both offer very different nights out.

Comedy and entertainment at Music Hall Tavern Lanzarote

For comedy, music, incredible costumes and a night where you can expect to laugh from start to finish, Music Hall Tavern is one of Lanzarote's best-known evening shows. The night combines the famous comedy drag show with dinner and table service for drinks, making it an easy option for couples, families and groups looking for something different to do at night in Lanzarote.

You can see full details, available dates and transport options on our Music Hall Tavern Lanzarote page.

A Wild West night at Rancho Texas Country Night

Rancho Texas offers a completely different Lanzarote nightlife experience. The park changes atmosphere for the evening and becomes the setting for a country and western night packed with live entertainment, music, dancing and audience participation.

The evening includes the famous Rancho Texas BBQ together with included beer, sangria and soft drinks, making it especially popular with families looking for an all-in-one night out. See dates, tickets and transport information for Rancho Texas Country Night.

Which Lanzarote show should you choose?

It really depends on the type of night you are looking for. Music Hall Tavern is the choice for comedy, singing, dancing and show-style entertainment, while Rancho Texas Country Night offers a more interactive family evening with live music, line dancing, a BBQ and included drinks.

Both are very popular Lanzarote nightlife experiences, so during busy holiday periods we recommend booking your chosen night in advance rather than leaving it until you arrive.

Music Hall Tavern Lanzarote a famous part of Lanzarote nightlife

You know a show has become part of the Lanzarote nightlife scene when visitors return to see it holiday after holiday. Music Hall Tavern Lanzarote has built a huge following in the Canary Islands and its combination of comedy, music, dancing, spectacular costumes and audience interaction makes it a completely different night out to simply visiting the bars and restaurants.

The show is designed as a full evening of entertainment, with dinner included and drinks served to your table throughout the night. The cast perform comedy routines, musical numbers and their own hilarious take on familiar songs and entertainment, with plenty of audience participation along the way.

Music Hall Tavern is suitable for families as well as couples and groups, and transport options are available for guests staying outside Puerto Del Carmen. This makes it one of the easiest Lanzarote shows to enjoy if you are staying in Playa Blanca or Costa Teguise and want to experience some of the nightlife in Puerto Del Carmen without arranging the whole evening yourself.

If you want a Lanzarote night out filled with laughter and entertainment, take a look at the Music Hall Tavern Lanzarote show and book in advance, particularly during the busiest holiday periods.

Rancho Texas Country night

You can't talk about family nightlife in Lanzarote without mentioning Rancho Texas Country Night. Taking place at the famous Rancho Texas Lanzarote venue in Puerto Del Carmen, the atmosphere changes completely in the evening as it becomes a Wild West-style night of entertainment.

This is much more than simply watching a show. There is live music, dancing, line dancing, entertainment for adults and children and plenty of opportunities to get involved. It makes Rancho Texas especially popular with families who want a complete evening activity rather than spending the night moving between different restaurants and bars.

Food and drinks are an important part of the night too. The Rancho Texas Country Night includes its Western-style BBQ together with beer, sangria and soft drinks included during the evening.

After eating, the entertainment continues with music and dancing and you can even have a go at line dancing yourself. It's lively, relaxed and one of those Lanzarote nights out where children, parents and grandparents can all enjoy the same experience.

If that sounds like your kind of evening, see the full Rancho Texas Country Night details for tickets, available nights and transport options.
