Entertainment for Over-50s in Tenerife

Tenerife’s south is perfect for an evening out over 50: shows start early, entry is usually free, and there’s a huge choice of tribute acts, crooners, soul and Motown nights, quizzes, bingo and dancing. In winter, when long-stay visitors arrive, many bars run afternoon sessions too.
