TRAVEL GUIDES DIRECTORY: TENERIFE HOLIDAY LAS GALLETAS

POPULAR TRADITIONS

People in Las Galletas observe a variety of holidays and festivals each year. Being predominantly Catholic, the locals can be extra devout in their observance.

The major celebration of Las Galletas is the Carnaval, which takes place every year in February. This is a week-long celebration that draws hundreds, even thousands, of visitors each year. During Carnaval week, people dress in a bewildering array of colorful and lively costumes.

After the gaiety of the Carnaval, the mood quickly turns somber as the Lenten season sets in. During the weeks leading up to, and including, the Holy Week, locals and Catholics perform various religious acts. The Holy Week culminates in Good Friday and Easter Sunday.
