Tenerife: MHT – Music Hall Tavern Comedy Drag Dinner Show

The main event here is a full evening of comedy, live vocals and dance, delivered in English and built around big costumes and classic singalong routines. You get dinner, a cast meet and greet, a warm-up pre-show and the main production, so the entertainment starts well before the curtain-up.

I like two things in particular: the show is in English, which makes the jokes easy to follow, and the format gives you a whole evening out, not just a performance. The meal and at-seat drink service also mean you can settle in without missing much of the action.

One consideration: this is a long, lively night, and the simple dinner may be less memorable than the show. Drinks cost extra, and if you do not have a car, arranging a transfer is wise because finding a taxi after the performance can be difficult.

What to know before booking

• A full evening indoors: The advertised schedule runs from 7:00 PM to 11:00 PM, with the activity listed as 4.5 hours.
• Dinner is included: Expect vegetable soup, a turkey roast dinner with potatoes, seasonal vegetables and gravy, then dessert.
• The show has two parts: A pre-show leads into the full production, with a short interval between the main show’s sections.
• The comedy is in English: Live singing, dance routines, costumes and audience-facing humor are central to the night.
• Transfers are optional: Pickup details are confirmed by email. If you book one, be at the stated point 10 minutes early.
• Plan for dietary needs: Vegetarian meals and other dietary requirements can be accommodated if arranged in advance.

Arriving at Music Hall Tavern

The show takes place at Music Hall Tavern, inside Karting Las Americas. You begin at reception, where you show your voucher before staff direct you to your table. The evening ends back at the same venue, so there is no separate drop-off point to work out after the performance.

The stated schedule is 7:00 PM to 11:00 PM, while the activity duration is given as 4.5 hours. Check the available start time when booking, and allow for the fact that the whole experience includes more than the main show: you have a meal, a pre-show, an interval and the full production.

If you have your own car, getting to the venue is straightforward in principle, though you will want to plan your return. Without a car, I would consider the optional transfer rather than counting on finding a taxi after the show. Pickup is not available from Tenerife North, and the provider emails the exact time and location. The bus has an MHT sign in the front window; be at the pickup point 10 minutes early, since drivers wait no more than five minutes past the scheduled time.

Dinner comes before the big production

The included three-course meal gives the evening a dinner-theater shape. The listed menu starts with vegetable soup, followed by turkey roast with roast and mashed potatoes, seasonal vegetables and gravy. Dessert rounds it off. Children can have the same meal or choose chicken nuggets and chips.

Think of this as a practical, familiar dinner included with the ticket, rather than a fine-dining reason to book. The meal is a simple menu, and opinions on it vary: some diners find it tasty and well cooked, while others find it plain or a little short on flavor. That is a fair trade for an event where the performance is the main attraction, but it helps to set expectations.

Vegetarian food is available, with a bean-based steak listed as the option. Other dietary needs can be accommodated, but you need to tell the provider in advance so the special meal can be arranged. If you have a wheelchair, pram or medical concern that could affect your comfort, share that information before the evening as well. The venue is listed as wheelchair accessible.

Drinks are not included in the ticket. You can buy them at the bar, and table service is offered throughout the night. That is useful during the show: you can order without giving up a performance moment, though drinks will add to the total cost.

The pre-show sets the pace

The entertainment begins before the full production. The pre-show is designed to warm up the room with comedy and interaction, so you are not simply waiting over dinner for the main event to begin. The cast meet and greet is also part of the evening, offering a chance to see the performers up close before they take the stage.

The show is promoted as family-friendly and performed entirely in English. That makes it an easier choice for mixed-age groups than a performance built around language you may not understand. Still, the comedy is broad, lively and audience-facing, so it is best suited to people who enjoy a bit of cheek and do not mind being part of a room full of laughter.

Two acts of singing, dancing and comedy

The full production is split into two parts, with a short interval between them. Expect live singing, energetic dance routines, large costumes and comic turns, with classic singalong numbers alongside newer material. The Summer 2025 production is described as a fresh version of the show that keeps familiar routines while adding new material and MHT touches.

The humor is a major reason to choose this night. It leans toward slapstick, facial expressions and quick comic timing rather than subtle theater. If you like a polished, serious musical, this is not that. If you enjoy a good-natured send-up, bold performance and the chance to sing along, the format has plenty to keep the evening moving.

The performers’ vocals and dancing are key parts of the appeal, not just decoration around the jokes. Costumes add color and spectacle, and the two-part structure gives the show room to vary its pace. The interval is short, but it gives you a chance to top up your drink while table service helps you stay in your seat for much of the evening.

Seats, service and the social side

Staff guide you to your table and serve food and drinks there. That can make the night feel organized from arrival through the final act, especially if you are visiting with a group and would rather not manage several separate stops. The cast and crew are part of the experience, too: the meet and greet starts the interaction, while the performance itself can include audience attention and jokes.

Table placement can affect how much you see. The venue has plenty of space, but not every seat gives the same view of the stage. If being close to the action matters to you, you may want to ask about seating when booking, though a particular table cannot be guaranteed from the information provided. A seat near a doorway or at the side could offer a less direct view.

The shared-table setup can also shape the social feel. Couples may be seated with other people, which can be a plus if you like a lively group atmosphere, or less ideal if you hoped for a private table. The evening is well suited to birthdays, hen parties and other celebrations; tell the venue in advance if you are marking a special occasion, but do not assume a shoutout or extra treat is automatic.

Is the ticket good value?

The stated price is about $50 per person, while the show-and-meal ticket is also advertised from €44. Prices and availability can change, so check the booking options for your date rather than treating those figures as a fixed quote.

For that price, you are paying for dinner, the pre-show, the full production and the cast meet and greet. The value is strongest if you want a complete evening of entertainment and appreciate live performance. It is less compelling if you are choosing primarily for the food or expect drinks to be part of the package.

The show has a 4.6 rating from 242 ratings, and the strongest praise centers on the comedy, singing, costumes and smooth organization. The practical details matter here: an included meal saves you from arranging dinner elsewhere, while optional transfers can make the end of the night easier. Add drinks and transport to your budget before deciding what the total evening will cost.

Who will enjoy this Tenerife night?

I would choose MHT for a group that wants an easy, energetic night out: couples, friends, families with children, or a celebration party. The all-English performance helps if you want to follow the jokes, and the blend of comedy, singing and dancing gives the evening more variety than a stand-up set alone.

It is also a good choice if you like camp costumes, broad humor and audience participation. You do not need to know the songs in advance to understand the show, though familiar singalong numbers can add to the fun. Children have a meal option of their own, but parents should decide if this style of lively comedy suits their family.

If you prefer a quiet dinner, a private table, or a meal that is the main event, this may not be your best pick. The show is the reason to go; dinner is a convenient part of the package. And if you are without a car, sort out transport before the evening rather than leaving the return journey to chance.

Should you book the MHT show?

Book it if you want an English-language comedy show with live vocals, dancing and costumes, and like the convenience of having dinner included. The mix of pre-show, two-part production and table service makes for a complete evening, especially for a group or celebration.

Consider another plan if you want a quiet night, a more elaborate meal or a guaranteed private table. Before you book, check the current price and start time, arrange a transfer if needed, and send dietary or accessibility details in advance. That bit of planning leaves you free to enjoy the main attraction: a room full of music, jokes and theatrical sparkle.
