Comedy with sequins beats a quiet dinner. MHT Lanzarote is a four-hour comedy drag dinner show in English, built around a full sit-down meal, a small, high-energy venue, and big costume moments from start to finish.

I love that you get a 3-course turkey roast dinner plus ice cream, not just a ticket and a seat. I also like the free printed souvenir photo and programme you receive right when you arrive, before the show gets going.

One thing to consider: the show is fun and crowd-friendly, and this is a paid bar setup for drinks (alcohol, soft drinks, and bottled water), so your final spend can creep up if you order often.

Key Points at a Glance

• Free printed souvenir photo + programme right on arrival
• Sit-down 3-course meal, including turkey roast, gravy, and ice cream
• Small, intimate venue that helps the performers connect with the crowd
• Meet-and-greet with the MHT cast before the main event
• All dietary needs catered for (vegetarian, vegan, and other requirements)
• Drinks are paid at the bar, with table service

How the Whole Night Flows (In About 4 Hours)

This is the kind of evening that works well when you want one clear plan instead of “maybe dinner, maybe a show.” You’ll arrive, get set up quickly, eat, then get your laughs in a three-part full production style.

Timing is simple: it runs about 4 hours total. Most people book it about a month earlier (around 37 days in advance on average), which tells me it’s popular enough that you shouldn’t wait until the last minute—especially if you want a specific pickup time.

If you like events that don’t require you to think too hard, this one helps. You’ll be seated, your meal comes in courses, and the show moves along at a steady pace.

Getting There: Pickup, Mobile Ticket, and Being Ready

MHT Lanzarote offers pickup, and that matters if you don’t want to deal with taxis or figuring out the timing of public transport at night.

Here’s the practical bit:

• Be at the bus stop 5 minutes before pickup.
• Contact the operator with your hotel details so they can confirm your exact pickup point and time.

You’ll also get a mobile ticket, which is handy when you’re packing light and don’t want to hunt for paper. The venue is near public transportation, and service animals are allowed—so logistics are fairly straightforward.

Music Hall Tavern: Why a Smaller Venue Changes the Show

The venue at Music Hall Tavern is described as small and intimate, and that’s not just a comfort detail. It changes the vibe. When the room is tighter, the comedy feels more personal, and it’s easier for performers to do crowd interaction without shouting over a huge space.

That same closeness is why the experience can feel especially funny if you’re comfortable being part of the energy. The downside is also real: if you’re shy, front seating can be a lot more noticeable. I’d plan to choose your seat with your personality in mind—this show thrives on participation.

Your Arrival Moment: Souvenir Photo and Meet-and-Greet

One of the clever choices here is what happens before the show: you’re not just waiting around. You’ll get:

• a souvenir photo
• a programme
• a meet-and-greet with the MHT cast

That means you leave with something tangible and instantly tied to the night, not just memories that blur together later. It also helps you settle in. You’ll feel like the evening has started before the first joke lands.

If you enjoy seeing the cast up close (even for a short meet-and-greet), this format is a big part of the appeal. Staff like Nicky (reception) and Alina have been singled out for making the welcome feel smooth and friendly.

Dinner That Actually Feels Like Dinner (Not Just a Bundle Deal)

This is a three-course meal served at your table. If you’ve ever done dinner shows where the food is an afterthought, this is the part that makes a difference.

Starters: Vegetable Soup

You’ll start with a tasty vegetable soup. It’s a simple opener, but it helps the timing work. You eat before the pacing of the show pulls focus.

Main: Turkey Roast with All the Usual Comforts

The main is the highlight for most people: a mouth-watering turkey roast dinner with:

• mash potato
• roast potato
• seasonal vegetables
• Yorkshire pudding
• gravy

Even better for picky eaters and families: it’s a full plate, not a small portion. In fact, people mention having empty plates after. That’s a good sign when you’re paying for both food and entertainment.

Dessert: Ice Cream to Cool Down

Lanzarote can feel warm most of the year, and the dessert is built for comfort: ice cream after the hearty meal.

Kids Option (and Why It Helps Families)

If you’re bringing children, you have choices. Kids can either have the same meal as adults, or—if they’re fussy—choose chicken nuggets and chips instead. That flexibility is one reason this can work for a wider range of ages.

Diets: Vegetarian, Vegan, and More

You can also request dietary requirements. The dinner experience says all dietary requirements are catered for, including vegetarian and vegan needs and other requirements. So if your diet isn’t standard, don’t worry—you’re not stuck with a sad side salad as the only option.

The Show: Comedy Drag with Crowd Energy

The show itself is where MHT earns its reputation. Expect glitz, glamour, and a lot of costume changes, with performers described as funny, talented, and very entertaining.

The comedy style lands somewhere between sharp timing and a cheeky, playful approach. People describe it as packed with laughs—full of belly laughs and singalong energy. It’s also the kind of performance that rewards paying attention, because the acts interact well with the crowd in a small venue.

Also note the show is described as family-fun in tone—so it isn’t just adults-only club energy. That matters if you’re trying to choose something that won’t feel awkward with kids or teens.

There’s a real production rhythm to it: a 3-part show means you’re not stuck through one long block. Instead, the night keeps moving with different acts and moments that reset your attention.

Drinks and the “What Will I Spend?” Reality Check

Here’s the part that can surprise people: while your ticket covers the dinner and show, drinks are not included.

The bar is paid, with table service. That applies to:

• alcoholic beverages
• soda/pop
• bottled water

So your final cost depends on how much you drink. If you want to control spending, treat the meal as the main included value and then choose just a couple of drinks during the show.

Some people book an all-inclusive style package (mentioned in the feedback), where drinks flow more freely. But the standard setup here is clear: the bar is paid.

Value for Money: Is $53.23 a Good Deal?

At $53.23 per person, you’re not just paying for a seat in a theater. You’re buying three things together:

1. A sit-down meal (starter, main, dessert)
2. A full production comedy drag show
3. Extras that start immediately (souvenir photo and programme)

That combination is the main reason people rate it highly. A comedy show can be a pure entertainment cost. Here, the meal component makes it feel like you’re getting a complete evening plan rather than splitting budgets across dinner and tickets.

If you’re comparing it to a “dinner + something else” approach, the math can work in your favor—especially if you were going to eat anyway and then add a show on top.

Seating, Shyness, and Getting the Most from the Crowd Work

Because the venue is small, you’ll likely feel close to the action. That’s good for fun and atmosphere, but it’s worth mentioning: front seating may mean you’re more visible to performers.

If you’re shy or prefer to watch rather than be part of the moment, think about where you sit. If you love being part of the energy, front or closer seating can make the night feel even funnier.

Planning Your Night in Lanzarote Around This Show

This is an evening plan, not an all-day activity. So I’d treat it like your “anchor event” for the night.

A few tips that help it land smoothly:

• Plan a slower day before. A dinner show can be a late-night energy hit.
• Eat lightly earlier if you tend to get full fast—this meal is a full meal.
• Decide your drinks strategy before you’re seated. If you want to keep costs down, you’ll feel in control.

And if you’re traveling in a group, this is one of those activities that often becomes the highlight because it creates shared moments—photos, jokes, and the kind of laughter that doesn’t require you to speak the same language perfectly.
