MHT Lanzarote – Comedy Drag Dinner Show Experience – No1

I’m reviewing MHT Lanzarote, a comedy drag dinner show in Lanzarote that runs about 4 hours and includes pickup (when available) plus an English-speaking experience. Expect glitz, sharp laughs, and a proper sit-down meal built around the show’s pace.

What I like most: you get a 3-course turkey roast dinner that’s more than an afterthought, and you also get a meet-and-greet with the cast plus a printed souvenir photo and programme before the entertainment kicks off.

One thing to consider: the meal is included, but drinks are a paid bar. Also, the venue is small and interactive, so if you’re shy, seating near the front may put you right in the performers’ line of sight.

Key Points Before You Go

• Pickup offered: confirm your exact stop with your hotel info so you don’t miss the bus.
• A real sit-down dinner: vegetable soup, turkey roast with mash/roast potatoes, veg, Yorkshire pudding and gravy, then ice cream.
• Meet-and-greet plus souvenir: you arrive, get photographed, and receive a printed photo and programme.
• Small, intimate show: the comedy feels closer because the audience is part of the energy.
• Dietary needs supported: vegetarian, vegan, and other requirements can be handled.
• Drinks are extra: alcoholic and soft drinks are paid at the table throughout.

MHT Lanzarote: A Comedy Drag Dinner Night That Moves Fast

If you want one ticket that covers both dinner plans and evening entertainment, MHT Lanzarote is built for that. You’re not doing “a show after dinner.” You’re eating as the evening builds, then watching three parts of full production comedy drag with big costume energy and plenty of crowd engagement.

The overall feel is fun, slightly cheesy, and very crowd-ready. Several people mention laughing hard through the acts, with the performers delivering laughs plus quick audience interaction. The venue is described as small and intimate, which is usually a good sign: it means you’re not watching your show from the far edge of a stadium.

This is also a good option if your group has mixed tastes. The jokes are playful rather than niche, and the production side gives you visual payoff even if you’re not deep into drag culture.

Price and What You’re Really Paying For

At about $53.23 per person for roughly four hours, this isn’t a “cheap and cheerful” snack-show. You’re paying for a packaged evening with a full 3-course meal and production entertainment layered in.

You’ll still want to think about total spend. Reviews consistently flag that drinks are where the extras add up. If you choose an all-inclusive add-on (where available through the booking), some guests say the bar runs smoothly and they enjoyed wine and cocktails. If you don’t do the all-inclusive option, plan on paying for alcohol, soda/pop, and bottled water at the bar during the night.

The value angle that keeps coming up: people say the food was genuinely tasty for a big event, the staff were attentive, and the show felt worth the price because it ran with momentum instead of dragging.

Where It Starts: Music Hall Tavern Check-In and First Impressions

Your night begins at Music Hall Tavern (MHT). The flow matters here. You arrive, get seated, and you’re quickly moved into the meal and show rhythm. That matters on holiday because nobody wants a long wait with nothing happening.

One of the practical perks mentioned is that you’re welcomed and guided through the process. Guests note getting a friendly reception and a clear setup for the photo moment. If you’re traveling with kids, this kind of organization is gold: it keeps the evening predictable and reduces stress.

The atmosphere is classic show-night: glittery, glamorous, and clearly set up for both photos and performance. If you like dressing up a bit, you’ll fit right in with the vibe.

The Pre-Show Photo Moment: Souvenir Photo and Programme

Before the entertainment begins, you get a souvenir photo and a printed programme. This isn’t just a marketing gimmick. People mention it as part of the warm welcome and a fun way to kick off the night.

Why it’s worth caring about: drag shows often feel more personal when you’re part of the room, and a pre-show photo helps you capture that moment before the lighting and costumes take over. It also gives you something to reference during the show.

If you’re traveling with family or a group of friends, this is one of the easiest “we’ll all remember this” parts of the evening.

Dinner That Actually Feeds You: 3-Course Turkey Roast

Dinner is structured as a full sit-down meal, served before or during the show in a way that keeps things moving. The menu is clearly laid out:

• Start: vegetable soup
• Main: mouth-watering turkey roast dinner with mash potatoes, roast potatoes, seasonal vegetables, Yorkshire pudding, and gravy
• Dessert: ice cream

That turkey roast main is one of the most talked-about positives. Guests mention plates being empty, which is usually a good sign at a large entertainment venue. It’s also a “safe bet” meal if you’re picky. It’s not an oddball theme menu; it’s comfort-food style.

Kids’ Option and Family-Friendly Planning

If you’re bringing children, there’s a clear option: kids can choose chicken nuggets and chips instead of the same meal as adults if they’re fussy eaters.

This family-friendly detail shows the organisers are thinking about real holiday dining, not just adult entertainment. Some guests even describe it as “family fun,” with teens and adults both enjoying the comedy.

Vegetarian and Vegan Support

Dietary requirements are catered for, including vegetarian and vegan needs, plus other requirements. The key point for you: you’re not forced to skip dinner or settle for a token alternative. If you have specific needs, make sure they’re communicated when you book.

The Show Format: Three-Part Production Comedy Drag

After dinner, the evening turns into the main event: a 3 Part Full Production Show. You’ll see multiple costume changes, with guests calling out how impressive they are. The comedy is fast and crowd-involved, and several reviews mention tongue-and-cheek humor, slapstick elements, and even singalong energy.

Because the venue is small and intimate, you’re not watching from a distance. Performers interact with the audience, and that can be hilarious if you’re game. One review even suggests it’s better to sit toward the back if you’re shy, because the front rows get more attention.

The performers are clearly comfortable in the room. Guests repeatedly highlight that the queens are funny, talented, and extremely entertaining, and that they’re generous with their time—meaning they’re not rushing through the audience moments.

Meet-and-Greet and Cast Energy: Friendly, Not Distant

The included meet-and-greet with the cast is a big deal because it turns this from just a “sit and watch” night into something more personal. Reviews repeatedly say staff and performers were welcoming, friendly, and attentive.

You’ll also see real examples of helpful service mentioned in guest feedback. People name drop staff like Nicky on reception and serving, and Alina as a standout during the evening. While those specific names aren’t necessary for you to enjoy the show, they do suggest the team runs on hospitality, not just performance.

If you’re the type who likes talking with people and making memories, the interaction piece makes this feel more authentic and less transactional.

Drinks, Wine, and the Table-Service Reality

Here’s the practical bit: the food is included, but alcohol and soft drinks are not. The bar offers a selection, and table service runs through the night.

What guests say is especially helpful: in the all-inclusive experience, people mention nice wine and cocktails. That tells me the drinks aren’t just random filler. They’re part of the evening plan.

Still, it’s not “free drinks included” by default. If you’re trying to keep costs predictable, decide early how you’ll handle beverages:

• pay as you go
• or choose an all-inclusive option if it’s offered on your booking

Either way, expect a lively bar atmosphere, not a quiet wine tasting corner.

Seating and Crowd Interaction: Why Your Position Matters

Because the venue is small, where you sit affects your experience. More than one review hints that the show feels more personal up close, with performers interacting directly with guests.

If you love being in the action and don’t mind being noticed, front seating can feel like part of the show. If you’re shy, prefer a seat farther back. One review specifically advises not to sit at the front if you’re shy.

This is one of those “small detail, big impact” travel choices. It’s worth thinking about your comfort level before you arrive.

Pickup Logistics: Make It Easy on Yourself

Pickup is offered, but you’ll need to coordinate it. The instructions are simple: be at the bus stop 5 minutes before pick up time, and contact the provider with your hotel so they can confirm your pickup point and time.

Why this matters: with shows, timing is everything. If you arrive late, you can miss the smoother parts of the evening flow like check-in, seating, and the pre-show photo moment.

If you’d rather go on your own, the venue is near public transportation, so you’re not stranded either way.

Accessibility and Who This Works Best For

Most travelers can participate, and service animals are allowed. That’s a comfort check for many travellers.

This experience is a strong match if you want:

• a fun, laugh-focused night out in Lanzarote
• a night that includes dinner so you don’t plan two things
• crowd interaction and a small-room show feel

It’s also a good fit for groups—friends, couples, and family groups—because the production is entertaining for different ages, and the staff keep things moving.

If you dislike interactive performances or you’re very sensitive to being singled out, choose seating with care or consider whether the crowd energy is your style.

Booking Timing and Cancellation: Flexible, But Don’t Wait

This is commonly booked about 37 days in advance, which suggests popular nights fill up. If your dates are fixed, I’d book sooner rather than later.

The good news is cancellation flexibility: you can cancel for a full refund up to 24 hours in advance of the start time. If you cancel less than 24 hours before, the amount you paid isn’t refunded. Cut-off times are based on local time.

So yes, it’s flexible—but still treat the booking like a normal show ticket. Don’t leave it to the last moment.

Should You Book MHT Lanzarote?

Book MHT Lanzarote if you want a complete evening package: dinner plus a comedy drag show, with a souvenir photo and a meet-and-greet included. It’s good value when you factor in that the meal is a real sit-down with turkey roast and ice cream, and the show gets high praise for being funny, energetic, and well organised.

Skip it (or think twice) if you’re only interested in drinks being included, because the bar is paid. Also consider the small-venue crowd interaction—if you’re shy, seating location matters.

If you’re in Lanzarote for a week and you’re looking for one night that’s straightforward to plan and reliably entertaining, this is the kind of ticket you’ll be glad you booked.
