There are very few events in Tenerife where you’ll see:
Tiny kids wobbling along on stabilisers,
serious cyclists in full racing gear,
and someone’s uncle riding an ancient mountain bike from 1997…
All happily sharing the same route.
But the Fiesta de la Bicicleta somehow manages it every year.
The 44th Fiesta de la Bicicleta Arrives in Santa Cruz
📅 Saturday 6th June 2026
⏰ 4:00pm – 8:00pm
📅 Sunday 7th June 2026
⏰ 10:00am – 2:00pm
📍 Explanada Portuaria — Santa Cruz de Tenerife
The event returns with a full weekend of cycling activities, family entertainment and community events focused on promoting healthier and more sustainable transport around the city.
Fun Zone, Workshops and Family Activities
Throughout the weekend there’ll be:
🎉 Fun Zone activities
🚲 Cycling workshops
👨👩👧 Family activities
🎁 Traditional bicycle prize draw
With bicycles once again being raffled courtesy of:
🏬 El Corte Inglés
Which probably explains why half the children suddenly become very enthusiastic about cycling for one weekend only.

Worth Knowing
Events like this always remind you how different Santa Cruz feels when roads are filled with bicycles instead of traffic.
Quieter. Happier.
And significantly less aggressive than the TF-5 on a Monday morning.
