Tickets are sold per date, so check the day in your basket before you pay; a Friday ticket is not valid on Saturday. The price on GetYourTickets is the price this site shows. Several clubs publish a last-entrance time or a door surcharge for late arrivals: it is on the event page, read it before you plan dinner. Carry a passport or national ID card: door staff can ask for it, and Papagayo does not accept a photo on your phone.

Doors open at the time on the event page. Arrive in the hour before any cut-off the club publishes, not after it. Know your address in both directions: the club's for the taxi driver on the way there, your hotel's on the way back. If you are staying outside Playa de las Américas, decide before you go out whether you are walking or taking a taxi home and keep the fare separate. Drink water, especially after a day on the beach. Nothing on this site replaces the rules on the ticket page: if the two disagree, the ticket page wins.

Buy online before you go out. Online you lock in the price shown. If you are travelling as a group, buy all the tickets for the same date in one go so nobody is left on a different night. If a night you want is not on sale yet, leave your dates on the plan page and you hear when it is released.

Big groups work well in Tenerife South if you do three things. Buy every ticket for the same date, in one order if you can, so the whole group is on one night. Pick one meeting point near the club rather than at the door, so the whole group finds each other easily. And agree the way home before you go out: inside Playa de las Américas everyone walks; from Costa Adeje or Los Cristianos, split taxis by hotel. Eight or more? Arrive early and together.
