Ready for a laugh in Lanzarote? The Music Hall Tavern (MHT) is a comedy drag dinner show with nonstop energy, clear English hosting, and big stage sparkle. I love the English-language flow, so you get the jokes without guessing. The night also mixes live singing and dance in a way that feels like real entertainment, not just dinner.

My second favorite thing is the format: you eat while the show keeps warming up, then the main production lands in two parts with a short break. The table service all night setup matters, because you’re not constantly getting up and losing the fun. One thing to consider: it runs on the dinner-show schedule, so if you prefer a quick in-and-out evening, the pacing may feel a bit long.

One more practical note before you go: the venue is on the first floor and there are 17 steps with no lift, so plan accordingly if you use a wheelchair, have mobility limits, or are pushing a pram.

Key things to know before you go

• Brand-new Summer 2025 production with updated staging and MHT magic
• Show and host in English, so comedy lands cleanly
• 3-course homecooked dinner plus meet-and-greet with the cast
• Table service all night, with a short 15-minute intermission
• Family-friendly in spirit, with some slightly raunchy humor that stays non-vulgar
• Drink reality check: food is included, but drinks are paid at the bar

MHT in Puerto del Carmen: what this comedy drag dinner is really like

Music Hall Tavern, or MHT, is one of those Lanzarote nights that doesn’t ask you to be in the mood. You arrive, get seated, and the room starts doing the work for you. The show is comedy drag with live singing and dance routines, plus fast jokes and big costume moments that keep momentum from start to finish.

The best part for me is that it’s not heavy-handed about language. The host and the show are in English, which makes the whole evening feel easier. When the punchlines come quickly, you don’t want to be translating in your head.

Also: the vibe is genuinely social. You’ll see couples, groups, and families sharing the same dark-swatch theater mood, with glitter-level performance energy. Based on what’s been said repeatedly, the staff and performers bring a professional feel to the proceedings, which helps you relax and enjoy.

Your 4-hour night plan: meet-and-greet, dinner, and the two-part show

Plan on a full 4-hour evening. Ticket holders are on the schedule for an evening run that typically spans 7:00 PM to 11:00 PM, with the show split into two parts and a 15-minute intermission.

Here’s how the night usually flows, and why it’s set up this way:

Arrival and meet-and-greet

When you arrive, you check in and show your voucher at reception. Then you move into the pre-show energy: you’ll have a meet-and-greet with the cast, which is a big reason this show feels personal. You’re not watching from far away and hoping the performer looks your way.

Dinner timing: a full 3-course meal, not just snacks

Dinner is part of the entertainment rhythm. You’ll start with a starter while things get going, then the meal continues through the night’s early momentum. This matters because it keeps the room calm enough to enjoy your food without it becoming a separate, slow dinner event.

The production: two halves and a short break

The main show is split into two parts. After the first segment, there’s a 15-minute intermission. Reviews and the format suggest this break is there so you can top up drinks and reset without losing the flow of the performance. Then the full production returns with more comedy, singing, and dance.

Table service stays in motion

A key detail: there’s table service all night, which is a real quality-of-life upgrade for a show like this. You can focus on the stage instead of constantly lining up for drinks.

The food: homecooked three-course comfort, plus real options

The dinner is included, and it’s clearly designed as a proper meal. You get a three-course homecooked dinner, with the menu laid out as:

• Starter: vegetable soup
• Main: turkey roast dinner with turkey, roast and mashed potatoes, seasonal vegetables, and gravy
• Dessert: ice cream Vienetta

That’s not gourmet cuisine, but it’s comfort-food cooking that works well in a seated show environment. You’re not eating over a loud stage; it’s paced so you’re fed while the entertainment keeps warming up.

Vegetarian and kids meals

Vegetarian options are available: a bean-based burger with choices of potatoes and vegetables. Kids can either have the same adult-style meal or choose chicken nuggets.

If you have dietary needs beyond those options, you should advise the organizer in advance. The info says they can accommodate dietary requirements if you flag them.

My practical takeaway

Because the meal is fixed-course and the main focus is the show, you should think of dinner as included fuel. One review said the food wasn’t the best but still fine; other reviews were happier with the taste and hot service. Either way, it’s a sensible package: you get fed without planning a separate restaurant before a night of entertainment.

Show style in English: drag comedy, singing, LED moments, and stage polish

MHT is built around show business basics: strong vocals, dance routines, and comedy that moves fast. The production includes live singing and electrifying dance moments, with side-splitting humor that keeps the room laughing.

The big production update for this year is a brand-new Summer 2025 production. Translation: you’re not just buying a ticket for the idea of a show. You’re showing up for an updated, staged evening with newer visuals. Reviews specifically mention that the LED screens enhance the show, and that the costumes are on point, with plenty of glitter and sparkle.

The tone: family-friendly, with mild raunchy humor at times

The marketing calls it family-friendly, and the audience energy matches that. That said, multiple comments mention the material is slightly rude at times but not vulgar. So think: playful innuendo and jokes, not shock comedy.

English hosting helps the comedy land

Since the host and performances are in English, the pacing works better. When drag comedy relies on timing, English delivery reduces the awkward gap where you’d otherwise miss the joke.

A standout performer name you might hear

One review called out Miss Rhona as the best, which tells me that at least one performer is delivering peak impact in at least some shows. If you’re going for specific performer energy, this is one more reason to pay attention to the cast details when you book.

Price and value: what you’re paying for, and what costs extra

Let’s talk money in a way that helps you decide.

You’ll often see this priced around $50 per person, and the included ticket details list:

• Adults: €44
• Children: €34
• Transport supplement: €10 if you select it
• Drinks: not included (paid bar / table service all night)

So what are you actually buying?

The value math that makes sense

Your ticket includes:

• 3-course dinner
• Meet-and-greet with the cast
• Entry to the show
• English hosting
• A show with multiple segments and an intermission

That’s a lot for one evening. For many visitors, the real bargain is that you’re not planning dinner separately, and you get a structured, hosted entertainment night that fits your schedule.

Drinks are extra, but service keeps it easy

Drinks are paid, and since you have table service, you can keep ordering without leaving your seat. A couple of reviews hinted that drinks service could be improved in terms of glass size or pacing, but overall the bar staff came across as quick and friendly.

If you want to avoid surprise spending, decide your drink budget before you arrive. If you’re drinking casually, great. If you’re planning cocktails all night, you’ll feel that extra cost.

Where the night happens: Centro Comercial La Peñita and a 17-step reality

The show is at Music Hall Tavern on the 1st floor of Centro Comercial La Peñita, Avenida de las Playas, Puerto del Carmen.

Two practical points matter here:

1. You check in at reception after showing your voucher.
2. There are 17 steps to reach the venue and no lift is available.

If you’re comfortable with stairs, you’re fine. If not, this is the one clear logistical downside of the experience.

Transfers and getting there: plan your route smartly

You can add transfers in some cases, but there’s a limit: transfers aren’t available from Puerto del Carmen or Tenerife North. That means if you’re starting from Puerto del Carmen, you should expect to arrange your own way to the venue.

If you’re staying elsewhere on the island, transfers can reduce hassle. The added €10 supplement (when available) is fairly small compared to the value of removing navigation and transport stress on a busy evening.

Who will love MHT (and who might want a different night)

I think MHT is a strong fit if you want:

• A ready-made night out with a clear schedule and a lively room
• Comedy plus live music and dance, not just one of the two
• A show that’s in English, so you don’t miss jokes
• A dinner included with a venue-based evening plan

You might not love it if:

• You dislike longer sit-down entertainment evenings
• You want fully quiet humor or zero raunchy undertone
• You need step-free access (since the venue has stairs and no lift)

If you’re traveling with mixed ages, it’s one of those nights that often works because the overall tone is playful and upbeat, and the format doesn’t require a nightlife style mindset.

My quick checklist before you book

• Check that the show times work for you (the evening runs roughly 7:00 PM to 11:00 PM).
• Plan your drink budget since drinks are not included.
• If you’re bringing kids, confirm meal options ahead of time.
• If stairs are an issue for you, think twice before booking.

Should you book MHT on Lanzarote?

Yes, if you want an easy win: English comedy drag, a full 3-course dinner, and a two-part show that keeps the energy moving. The reviews lean heavily toward laughter, strong performances, and a well-run staff experience, and the Summer 2025 update plus LED stage visuals sound like a real reason to go now rather than later.

The decision comes down to two practical questions: Are you good with a seated, multi-hour show? And are you comfortable with 17 steps and no lift? If those fit your needs, MHT is a solid pick for a memorable night in Puerto del Carmen.
