Tomorrow, Tuesday, February 16th, is once more, Carnaval Tuesday in Santa Cruz de Tenerife, when the main parade should be taking place from around 4 p.m. in the afternoon in the Avenidas de Anaga y Marítima (map) along the sea front in Santa Cruz, culminating in a huge fireworks display (around 9 - 9.30 p.m.)
We have to say should, because at the moment, the forecast for Santa Cruz tomorrow gives the probability of rain as 100%. Nothing at all unusual: rain in Tenerife is drawn to Carnaval week, in the same way as it is to August Bank Holidays in Britain, but it's always a shame if it disrupts the biggest day.
For those of you outside the island, or who don't want to dodge the showers, the Coso is due to be televised, as it has been in previous years. Radio Televisión Canaria (RTVC) will be broadcasting live from 4 p.m. onwards on both Televisión Canaria and Televisión Canaria Sat, which will also hopefully be available to watch live online. If you miss that, there's also a chance the recording will become available later on their version of the iPlayer, Emisiones Completas.
At 6 p.m., Spanish National tele, Televisión Española (TVE) will also be broadcasting the Gran Coso de Santa Cruz de Tenerife, along with the firework finale on La 2. Likewise, a recording of their coverage may appear later at TVE a la Carta.
