If you are planning to attend the Carnaval of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, you might be wondering how to get tickets for the various events and shows that take place during this festive season. In this article, we will give you all the details you need to know about buying tickets for the carnaval, including the dates, prices, and locations of the different galas and contests.

Tickets for the Drag Queen Gala

The Drag Queen Gala is one of the most popular and spectacular events of the carnaval, where contestants show off their creativity, glamour, and humor in extravagant costumes and performances. The preselection of the Drag Queen Gala will take place on Sunday, January 28th, at 8:30 p.m. in Belén María, and the tickets will go on sale this Thursday, January 25th, at 9:00 a.m. for the preselection and will cost 10 euros.

The Drag Queen Gala itself will be held on the last Friday of carnaval, February 16th, and the tickets will also cost 10 euros and will go on sale on February 8th at 9:00 a.m. However, you should hurry up if you want to get them, as they usually sell out on the same day they are released.

Tickets for the Gala de la Reina

The Gala de la Reina is another highlight of the carnaval, where beautiful candidates compete for the crown of the carnaval queen in dazzling dresses and accessories. The Gala will take place on Friday, February 9th, at 9:30 p.m. To attend this show in 2024, the tickets will cost 10 euros and will go on sale on Thursday, February 1st, at 9:00 a.m.
