Well what would you expect from a major cosmopolitan city, of course Santa Cruz, capital of Tenerife and home to CD Tenerife, is embracing the 2010 World Cup. The vast choice of multi national bars will spoil you for choice but if you want an open air feast of football, they can manage that too.

For the duration of the 2010 games there will be giant 4 x 3 metre LED screens for FREE viewing at Plaza del Chicharro and in nearby Calle Imeldo Seris. Sneak off from the shopping and grab a slice of the action for all the games. If you want to combine food with footie then how about Hotel Atlantida Silken in Avenida Tres de Mayo. They will be showing re runs of all the games in their Piano Bar, Cafe Atlantida, and Restaurante Jacarinde Tacoronte, and all three will be offering a specail menu with tapas from 2 euros from a special menu featuring food from all the World Cup countries – I wonder if England is pie and mash?
