Ricky's Cabaret Bar
Nightlife
LGBTQ+ venue
A venue intended for the wider LGBTQ+ community.
The place in a few words
In the heart of Yumbo Centrum, Ricky's Cabaret Bar is a longstanding fixture of Maspalomas' LGBTQ+ nightlife. Drag queens take to the stage for shows mixing music, impersonations, audience interaction and delightfully offbeat British humour. It's a welcoming place to discover drag entertainment over a drink.
What we loved
Whenever we're in Maspalomas, we try to spend at least one evening at Ricky's. We especially enjoy the slightly absurd British humour, the drag queens' quick comebacks and how they involve the audience. It's a great place to have a laugh over a drink before heading to other bars around Yumbo. Even after several visits, we still love coming back!
Our tip
If you've never been to a drag show, Ricky's is an easygoing introduction. Shows generally take place in the evening, so check the current schedule and arrive a little early to get a good seat. Performances are mainly in English, and some of the humour relies on spoken jokes and wordplay.
