The candidates for Queen of the Carnival wear costumes of more than five-meter high and over 80 kilos in weight. Considered one of the most popular and well-known in the world after that of Rio de Janeiro (Brazil), the Carnival of Santa Cruz de Tenerife offers festivities that range from the election of the Carnival Queen, children and adult murgas (satirical street bands), comparsas (dance groups) to performances on the streets.
