On Wednesday 16 September at 21:00 the San José district hosts the great drag queen gala of the Fiestas de San José 2026. The programme announces the best drag performers of the Canary Islands, with Santiguada, Drag Nilo and Iristerika de los Nervios, accompanied by the Grupo Coreográfico Titanium, and it also keeps back a big undisclosed surprise.
The drag gala is a well established format in the fiestas of northern Tenerife and it tends to be the biggest weekday crowd of the week. It closes a long afternoon that began with the bouncy castles and continued with the dessert contest, the ballroom dancing and the great bingo. The official programme gives the line-up and the time, without stating the exact place within the district or whether there is an entry fee.
