Fitur, the international Tourism fair in Madrid, gives awards to stands based on functionality and originality, as well as their overall look.

The Canary Islands placed 1st, for what was described as a spectacular stand, and is a repeat of their success at the World Travel Market, held in London, last year.

Just a short post today to note that Tenerife has been reaching high temperatures of up to 42º!  Thankfully there has been no cases of heatstroke bar the odd 1 or 2 that have been swiftly dealt with, but it's worth noting that the electricity companies have noticed large spikes in the usages as Hotels and homes all switch on air conditioning, fans and anything else they can find to help alleviate the heat!

Tenerife's Got Talent, our very own competition, has its Grand Final this Sunday, starting from 3pm onwards.

The venue is the luxurious 5 star Anthelia Hotel in Fañabe, and prices for tickets are €35 for standard and €45 for Platinum.

It will be a great show, and the Winner is guaranteed a contract to perform in Blackpool for a Summer Season, while a top placed winner will also recieve a spot at Birmingham's biggest free festival, including flights and accommodation. (more...)

The Met Office has issued warnings for Tenerife, stating that temperatures are expected to hit 35º+ today and continuing over the weekend.

This is extremely hot, even for Tenerife, and visitors are advised to take necessary precautions, with hats, sunglasses, and sun cream.
