What to do on New Year’s Eve in Tenerife?
Before we continue we would like to tell you how New Year’s Eve is celebrated in Spain. The party starts on the 31st of December and lasts until well into the early hours of the 1st of January.
One of the most important traditions is the 12 lucky grapes, which are eaten to the rhythm of the chimes at 12 o’clock at night. It is said that whoever eats them on time will have a prosperous year. It is a very fun and important activity. Come and eat the grapes with us to welcome the year on the right foot.
After the arrival of the New Year we hear the uncorking of the bottles and the collective joy. Everyone laughs, jokes and congratulates each other, extending the fun for a few hours or as long as the body can take it. You can also hear the cars passing by with their horns blaring.
In Tenerife it is even more fun because joy is in our blood. If you want to come, here are the best options to say goodbye to the old year and welcome the new one as we know how to do in Tenerife.

The squares are the favourite places to welcome the new year in Tenerife. Everyone is dressed in their best clothes and with a bottle in hand to enjoy the best New Year’s Eve party in Tenerife. As midnight approaches, people look up at the clock to see when the hand reaches its highest point. At the first stroke of the clock, everyone puts their grapes in their mouths and so on until the last one. When the clock has finished chiming, the voice of “Happy New Year” is heard in unison, and everyone embraces and kisses in happiness, regardless of whether they know each other or not.
While those on the beach celebrate on the terraces of the restaurants, along the promenade and at the beach parties.
