Los Realejos' emblematic month-long summer fiesta honouring the patron saint of the sea, with processions, music and gas
Events, local discoveries and useful stories for your time here.
Los Realejos spreads across the green hillsides of northern Tenerife above Puerto de la Cruz, running from the high pine forests down towards the rocky coast. It's a town of scattered hamlets and terraced farmland in the lush Orotava valley, far from the southern resorts, and it claims more fiestas per year than almost anywhere in Spain — fireworks are something of a local obsession here.
The biggest of those is the Fiestas del Carmen, the festival of Our Lady of Mount Carmel. Alongside the fiestas there's a strong run of music: a Pedro Guerra acoustic show, the Northern Tenerife Flute Orchestra, and a concert from Anna Rodríguez and Eliseo Lloreda. Here's what's on while you're here.
