Regla Festival: Concert & Open-Air Verbena Dance

This is the night Tinajo's Regla festival lets its hair down, and you don't need a ticket or an invitation to join in. Things kick off around 8pm in the Plaza de Tinajo, where Café con Leche and El Meneo share a stage for the first time, billed locally as "Un Meneo al Café con Leche." It's a proper Canarian gig: warm, loud, and full of people who've known each other their whole lives.

The real fun starts at 11pm, when the Mambo Latino orchestra and Grupo Atlántico strike up the verbena, an open-air dance that runs late into the warm summer night. Don't worry about knowing the steps. Grab a drink, find a spot near the band, and let the abuelas show you how it's done. It's free, friendly, and easy to wander into.
