Tucked away on the 4th floor of the iconic Yumbo Centre, it’s the island's most popular gay disco where the party only truly ignites when the rest of the center starts to wind down. This sanctuary serves major main-character energy with its world-class international house music, state-of-the-art sound system, and a dark, adventurous cruising area featuring cabins for those looking to turn the heat all the way up.

Sparkles Show Bar
Bar · C. Irlanda, 35100 San Bartolomé de Tirajana, Spain · 3.0 community rating · 1 reviews
Darling, welcome to the undisputed, feather-fringed throne room of comedy, camp, and complete holiday chaos. Sparkles completely throws out the rulebook of polite, stuffy theater cabaret. It is a massive, high-production sandbox of pure fun where razor-witted queens, live vocal illusionists, and brilliant backing dancers command a state-of-the-art stage layout. No one in the front row is safe from a loving, hilarious roasting. It acts as an absolute rite of passage in Playa del Inglés—a place where you arrive for a cheeky drink, take over the karaoke mic, and stay to belt out pop anthems under the disco balls until your jaw aches from laughing.
