This show turns dinner into a stage. I like the way the modern burlesque stays fun and classy while you eat, and I also like that you get a full 5-course meal built into the performance. It’s an adults-only night out at the GF Victoria Hotel, with lights low, costumes up close, and plenty happening around your table.

My one heads-up is the dress code and phone rules. You need long pants for men and you can’t bring cameras or take photos inside, so plan your outfits and your expectations before you arrive.

Key Things I’d Mark on Your Tenerife Night

• Las Olas hall at GF Victoria is the built-in stage setting for both dinner and burlesque
• 5-course menu with regular and vegetarian choices (vegetarian/vegan needs advance request)
• Live singing, music, and comedy keep the show moving between acts
• Adults-only atmosphere with a sexy, humorous tone (and athletic performance)
• Drink service during the show adds to the night’s pacing and buzz
• Rules matter: no sandals/flip-flops, no swimwear entry, and no photography inside

Las Olas at GF Victoria: where the night starts

The Scandal Dinner Show takes place in the Las Olas hall at the GF Victoria Hotel. The vibe is intentionally staged: you’re not just watching from the sidelines. You’re dining in the same space where performers pop in and out, with dim light that helps everything feel dramatic.

When you arrive, you’ll check in at the desk on site and get directed to your table. The table may be shared, so if you want a private setup, keep that in mind when you book and when you plan your arrival.

This show is also designed for an evening flow. The total time is about 2.5 hours, which is long enough for five courses and multiple acts, but short enough that it doesn’t feel like an all-nighter.

Timing and check-in: how to avoid awkward delays

Because the dinner-and-show schedule is timed, I’d build your evening around getting there on time. You’ll want to arrive with a few minutes to spare so you can check in, get seated, and settle before the first performance beats.

There’s no hotel pickup included, so you’ll be responsible for getting to the GF Victoria on your own. If you’re staying nearby in Playa de las Américas (or you plan to explore beforehand), that’s actually helpful: you can start slowly, then go straight into the show without adding extra transfers.

One extra practical tip: the dress code is specific enough that it can affect entry. If you show up in swimwear, beach clothes, or sandals, you may be turned away—so choose your outfit with the venue rules in mind, not just what’s comfortable for Tenerife evenings.

The 5-course dinner: what you’re really paying for

You’re buying more than a meal. You’re buying a dinner that’s paced to the show. That matters because it changes how the evening feels: you’re not stuck waiting for one long, silent dinner while the entertainment is happening elsewhere.

The menu is 5 courses, with both regular and vegetarian options. If you want vegetarian or vegan, request it at least 1 day before the activity. Waiting until the last minute can put you at risk of getting the standard menu.

Here’s the part you’ll want to think about before you go: a few people felt the courses leaned heavily toward fish/seafood. The exact menu details aren’t listed in the info you’re given here, so if seafood doesn’t work for you (or you want to know what each course is), I’d ask the venue in advance. That way you don’t end up halfway through an evening where you can’t comfortably finish dinner.

Portions also came up as a factor. Some descriptions say portions can be on the smaller side, though the experience is still framed as a full multi-course meal. The trade-off seems to be pacing: smaller plates help keep the show rhythm tight between acts.

The show itself: modern burlesque, comedy, and serious athleticism

Burlesque is the centerpiece. But what’s worth your attention is the mix: you get singing, music, and comedy, not just a series of costume changes. The acts are staged with a modern sensibility and a humor-forward tone, so the evening feels like entertainment first, not just spectacle.

A lot of the strongest moments are the athletic performances. Even when the vibe is sexy and playful, there’s a “Cirque du Soleil” style of physical skill running through the program. Think gymnastic feats with an erotic twist. It’s adult, but it’s described as not graphic or nude-focused.

Costumes range from lavish to sparkly, and the energy builds through the night. You’ll also notice the show isn’t stuck in one corner. The atmosphere in the hall encourages interaction, including short breaks where audience energy picks up.

One more practical point: the show is designed for a mixed crowd, but language can be a factor. The venue supports Spanish and English, yet some people found that more of the spoken banter landed in Spanish. If you’re counting on jokes and commentary to fully make sense in English, be ready for parts to be lost.

Live music, pacing, and the drinks that keep the mood up

Dinner show nights succeed or fail on pacing. This one aims to land you in the right flow: courses arrive while the entertainment is taking turns, and service stays active so your glass doesn’t feel forgotten.

The info you have includes a welcome drink, and it also notes that other drinks run through the show. In practice, multiple descriptions emphasize that wine keeps moving during the evening, so the mood tends to stay warm and social.

Service timing also shows up as a strong point. People described courses being served at the right pace between segments, which is exactly what you want in a show like this. If dinner arrives too late, you miss early acts; if it arrives too fast, you rush the food while trying to watch everything.

Dress code and rules that can derail your evening

This is the section that saves you from embarrassment at check-in.

The event is elegant-casual, and the rules are clear:

• Men need long pants
• Entry is prohibited for swimwear, beach clothes, and sandals (including flip-flops)
• No sportswear
• The show is not suitable for children under 16

On the tech side, the venue takes photography seriously. Cameras are not allowed, drones are not allowed, and photography inside the hall is prohibited. Flash photography and professional cameras are specifically called out too.

So go hands-free. If you’re the type who wants a photo for your Tenerife trip, plan to take pictures outside the show space before you go in (or consider waiting for any after-show photo opportunities, if offered at the time you attend).

If you want the night to go smoothly, bring the right outfit and treat the photo rules like part of the entertainment. When everyone follows them, the atmosphere stays focused on the performance.

Language, humor, and audience participation: how it lands

Even with Spanish and English support, humor can be language-heavy. If you don’t speak Spanish, you might still enjoy the visuals and the music, but the spoken jokes may not land as fully.

That said, the format includes music and action you don’t need translation for. You’ll be able to follow the “what’s happening right now” story through dance, singing, and physical feats. If you’re okay with understanding everything less than perfectly, you’ll still get plenty out of the show’s energy.

Also, the audience isn’t totally passive. There are moments where the show leans into participation, especially during short breaks. It makes the whole evening feel less like a staged production you watch from a distance and more like a shared party with performers.

Price and value: is $106 a fair deal?

At $106 per person, you’re paying for three things bundled together:

1. A 5-course dinner
2. A full burlesque performance with multiple acts
3. Drinks, starting with a welcome drink and continuing during the show

It’s not a budget night. But it can be good value if you consider the “total evening package” model. A dinner plus a separate paid show rarely comes out cheaper once you factor in a proper multi-course experience.

Where the value can swing is food preferences and expectations. If the menu works for you, you’ll feel like you’re getting a proper meal plus premium entertainment in one ticket. If you’re not keen on fish/seafood, you’ll want to plan ahead so you’re not stuck with courses you don’t enjoy.

If you’re going for a special occasion, this is also the type of experience that justifies spending more. It’s designed to feel like a night out with atmosphere: dim lighting, staged performances, lively service, and the kind of “only-in-Tenerife” entertainment you can’t recreate at home.

Who should book this dinner show in Tenerife

This experience fits best if you want an adults-only night that mixes dinner with performance.

You’ll probably love it if:

• You’re celebrating something and want a stylish, fun setting
• You enjoy live entertainment with music and comedy
• You like the idea of burlesque-style performance that leans athletic and humorous
• You want a packaged evening with dinner, show, and drinks together

You might skip it if:

• You strongly dislike fish/seafood and need full menu clarity
• You’re uncomfortable with dress-code enforcement
• You want to take photos during the show (the rules are strict)
• You’re traveling with kids (it’s not suitable under 16)
• You need every spoken part to be in English (Spanish seems more dominant during some sections)

Should you book the Scandal Dinner Show ticket?

If your goal is a memorable Tenerife night that combines a real meal with live adult performance, I’d say this is a solid choice. The strongest reasons to book are the mix of show elements (singing, music, comedy, and dance) plus the fact that the night is built around a 5-course dinner rather than treating food as an afterthought.

Just go in prepared. Wear long pants if you’re a man, skip sandals, and accept that cameras are off-limits inside. If you’re picky about food, ask in advance what you’ll be served, especially if you don’t eat fish. Do those two things and you’re set up for an evening that feels like proper entertainment first, not just dinner with background noise.
