Lanzarote: MHT Comedy Drag Dinner Show

Drag comedy, dinner, and live vocals, in one ticket. MHT in Puerto del Carmen pairs a full-scale comedy drag production with an included 3-course meal, all in English, at the Music Hall Tavern in Centro Comercial La Peñita.

I especially like the three-part structure of the night, since it keeps momentum from arrival warm-up through the main production and finale. I also like the meet-and-greet photo, printed as a souvenir, so you leave with proof you were there.

One drawback to plan for: the venue is on the 1st floor with 17 steps and no lift, so mobility matters.

Quick take: what makes MHT worth your evening

• Brand-new 2025 production with bigger, bolder staging and lots of motion on the floor
• Table service all night, so you do not miss show moments waiting in line
• English-language comedy and stand-up interactions, not a translation-dependent performance
• Live vocals plus a full cast of queens, dancers, and vocalists, not just one performer
• Meet & Greet with a printed souvenir photo included in your ticket
• Family-friendly, cheeky humor designed to stay fun for a wide range of ages

Entering the Music Hall Tavern in Puerto del Carmen

MHT is set in Centro Comercial La Peñita, in Puerto del Carmen, right where the evening energy in town is already flowing. You are not walking into a quiet theater, you are walking into a venue built for noise, laughter, and staged spectacle.

What makes this show work well for a holiday is the mix of show and dinner in one ticket. You get a structured night out, not a vague plan like dinner first and show later, and you get to settle in before the fun hits.

Just know the setting is practical, not fancy. Think “entertainment venue inside a shopping center,” and plan to dress like you would for a nice night out, since you will be sitting for dinner and then watching the production.

Where the night is staged, and what to know about the stairs

Your meeting point is the Music Hall Tavern, MHT reception inside Centro Comercial La Peñita, Avenida de las Playas, Puerto del Carmen. You show your voucher at reception, then you go up to the show area.

Here is the big logistics detail: MHT is on the 1st floor, and there is no lift. The venue has 17 steps, so if stairs are a challenge, factor that in early and contact the team in advance. The operator specifically asks you to tell them if you are bringing wheelchairs or prams or have medical needs, which is a good sign they plan around comfort when they can.

If you are traveling with kids, these steps are also something to think about, especially if you are arriving close to the start time.

The evening flow: pre-show comedy, dinner, and the finale

The show runs from 7:00 PM to 11:00 PM, with the total format lasting about four hours. Doors open at 7:00 PM, and the night is split into three parts with intervals, so you are not stuck waiting through one long block of performance without breaks.

Part 1 is the pre-show comedy warm-up. This is when the hosts and cast get the room laughing and moving toward that “we’re in on the joke” holiday mood. If you want the night to feel like a party, not a sit-and-watch event, this warm-up matters.

Part 2 is the full production show, the centerpiece of the night. This is where you see the “full-scale production” idea in action: choreography, costume changes, live vocals, and the mix of comedy and performance styles that MHT describes as singing, dancing, comedy mime, and stand-up moments.

Part 3 is the finale and meet-the-cast. This is where singalongs and surprises tend to land, and where you get that included cast photo moment. For many people, this ending is what turns a typical show ticket into a keepsake evening.

The included 3-course meal: simple choices that most people can enjoy

MHT is built around an included meal, served as a home-cooked 3-course dinner. This is one of the practical value points of the ticket: you are not only paying for entertainment, you are also paying for food and table service during the night.

Here is what is included:

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

If you are worried about variety, the menu is classic and British-leaning: soup, roast-style main, and a straightforward dessert. That simplicity is part of why it tends to work for groups and families.

Vegetarian options are available too: a bean-based burger with choices that include potatoes and vegetables. If you are traveling with kids, children can either have the same meal as adults or choose a chicken nuggets meal.

Dietary requirements can be accommodated if you advise ahead of time. If you have allergies or strict preferences, do not wait until you arrive. Give the details early so the kitchen can plan.

The show in English: comedy, stand-up, and live vocals

The performance language is English, including the stand-up comedy and audience interaction style moments. That matters more than you might think. When the humor is in English, you do not need to “figure it out” mid-punchline, and it makes the whole room feel like it’s in sync.

The production also leans hard on live vocals. You are not just watching lip-sync dance numbers. Live singing plus choreography is usually what separates “a drag show” from “a comedy drag dinner production,” and MHT is positioning itself as the bigger, more professional side of that spectrum.

The cast is described as a full professional group, with queens, dancers, and vocalists. That means you are not stuck watching one headliner doing every style of entertainment. You get variety, which keeps the show from feeling repetitive across the multiple intervals.

MHT also emphasizes being family friendly: cheeky, not crude. From a holiday-planning view, that is helpful if you are bringing a teen, or if you want something fun that still feels safe around different ages.

Table service and timing: how you avoid the dinner-show gap

One of the smartest parts of this format is table service all night. That means you are not hunting for staff or waiting on the wrong side of the room when the next comedic beat hits.

Dinner is scheduled so you are fed without losing the plot of the production. Because the show is split into three parts, you also get natural break points, when the room can reset. It helps you stay present for the main production instead of feeling like dinner is taking over the night.

If you are the type who gets restless during long theater shows, the pacing is likely your friend. Warm-up, main show, finale, plus intervals, gives your body a chance to settle between big moments.

Price and value: what you’re really paying for

At about $52 per person, this is positioned as strong value for a “dinner plus production” night. The ticket includes:

• Access to the full comedy drag dinner show
• 3-course meal
• Meet and Greet with a printed souvenir photo included
• Table service
• Transfers if you choose the optional pickup

That is the key math. You are not paying only for a performance. You are paying for food, service, and a show with live vocals plus a full cast.

Drinks are not included. You can buy them on site, and that is common for shows like this. If you plan to drink alcohol, I suggest treating drinks as your only big extra cost and budgeting for it before you arrive.

In a few cases, people have found drink quality or pricing could be improved, while others liked their cocktails. Either way, the core ticket value still stands because dinner and the show are included regardless of what you buy.

Transfers and getting there without stress

You have two ways to handle transport: you can go on your own, or you can choose optional hotel transfers for an extra charge. If you do use pickup, the bus has an MHT sign on the front window.

If the transfer option is selected, wait at the pickup point about 10 minutes before your scheduled time. Drivers will wait no longer than 5 minutes after that pickup time, so do not gamble on being late.

Since the venue is inside a commercial center, getting yourself there is generally straightforward, but timing still matters. If you hit the venue after doors open, you may lose some of the early warm-up energy that sets the tone.

Practical comfort tips for a smooth night out

The venue is on the 1st floor, no lift, so wear shoes that work for stairs and keep your plan simple.

Seating can also be tight, especially if your table is close to other diners. If you are sensitive to cramped spaces, pick what you care about most. You are there for the show, and the tradeoff tends to be that you sit nearer to others than you would in a roomy theater.

Because the show includes stand-up and audience interaction moments in English, I recommend arriving in a mindset that you are okay being involved, even if you do not want to be “the one picked.” Most people can enjoy without volunteering, but the atmosphere leans participatory.

If you are celebrating a birthday or special occasion, the operator asks you to let them know. That is a small step that can make the night feel more personal.

Who should book MHT in Lanzarote

I think MHT is a great match if you want one ticket that covers dinner and entertainment, without needing to plan two separate reservations. It is especially appealing for:

• Couples who want a memorable night out beyond beach time
• Friends looking for laughter and photo keepsakes
• Families seeking a cheeky but not crude show in English
• Groups who like live vocals and choreography with comedy in the mix

If your idea of a perfect evening is a quiet, low-interaction theater experience, this may feel a little too lively. But if you want energy, humor, and a full-stage production, this is built for that.

Should you book this comedy drag dinner show?

I would book MHT if you want a high-energy, English-language production that includes dinner, service, and a printed photo. The value is strongest when you think of the ticket as a packaged night, not just entertainment.

Hold off or plan carefully if stairs are a problem for you, since the venue has 17 steps and no lift. Also think about drinks budgeting since beverages are not included, and drink reviews are mixed.

If you want one straightforward way to turn a night in Puerto del Carmen into a real story you can share, MHT is exactly that kind of holiday evening.
