Carnival House of Santa Cruz

Casa del Carnaval (The Carnival House of Santa Cruz) is located in the park of the Barranco Santos (ravine), next to the Galcerán bridge of the Tenerife capital.
It is a center of interpretation of the most important event of the capital, declared as of International Tourist Interest and intends to be a place of exhibition and visit to know the heritage of the Carnival of Santa Cruz de Tenerife.

It has 1,052 square meters in which it is intended to make an approach to the Carnival for tourists, and place for exhibition, conservation, learning and meeting of the different groups.

The Carnival House of Santa Cruz is focused on four target groups: the tourist, the carnival community, the specialists and researchers, and the general public.
Inside you can find a permanent exhibition, designed as an attractive, sensory, comfortable and entertaining space that presents a sufficiently flexible equipment to accommodate collections and contents of different types, documentary collections and multimedia resources.

Thus, the exhibition space will change annually, incorporating the costume of the current Queen of Carnival as well as those used by the different artistic groups (adult and children murgas, musical groups, comparsas ...) during that year.

The costume of the current Queen of Carnival is the key piece that will receive visitors in the hall of the building and will serve as a demand from outside. Thus, it is presented with a welcoming ambience that serves as an introduction to the exhibition and that gives way to a sensory space with colored lights and sounds of the Carnival.

Along the route, the visitor will find different posters of the Carnival, as well as a videowall with videos alluding to this party. It is didactic and interactive space, in which visitors and schoolchildren can try out costumes, masks and wigs, and play the musical instruments, thus experiencing the carnival by themselves.
