Gran Canaria - Yumbo Centre I WASN'T EXPECTING THAT!

[@nickrussell4130]

Love Grand canaria. Yumbo is a great place to visit. Great food and bars. Sparkles was always a fantastic night out and everyone is so friendly. Can’t wait to come back here.

[@jobete1964]

Well, You were very curious .I hope you went back after dark and enjoyed the variety of bars on offer.

[@karenimran3349]

I’ve been to gran canaria many moons ago. I enjoyed it.

[@nathonhamilton4524]

we have been to the yumbo centre quite a few times, its a great place with good restaurants , its got a great atmosphere, well worth a visit.

[@leechfamily1576]

The first thing that sprung to mind was Police Academy and the Blue Oyster 🤣🤣 .

[@TheMacMaster]

Lol. 😂

[@leechfamily1576]

@Pieter Balk 🤣🤣

[@kdri155]

The Yumbo really does come to life at night, despite your initial impressions of the ground floor venues there are plenty of family venues there, a children’s play area with trampolines etc, plus the usual evening shopping, it’s a centre my wife and I enjoy visiting. Some folks would be offended by some bars but that’s there problem. The drag shows are very entertaining and not to rude if you’ve got kids.

[@chrischarlton82]

The Yumbo is lovely and quiet by day. But boy does it come alive by night! 😂 A great place for a drink though. Plenty of shows to keep you entertained. The Yumbo also holds Summer and Winter pride each year, which is fab and attracts thousands. Love the Yumbo!

[@campbellfulton5602]

Holiday next to Yumbo usually twice a year. It is primarily a gay area but hetro friendly. Most straight people with an open mind and sense of humour love it. Amazing festivals held in the square catering for all sorts.

[@arandompage]

As someone who went to Gran Canaria and visited the yumbo centre, the worst part was finding somewhere to eat 🤣

[@mjc5509]

@@samca4472 Yes a good all you can eat Chinese buffet. Right next to GAY BEARS bar...(with their bits hanging out)

[@thundercatsito]

Gio Is good for sandwiches, there's a kebab house clóse ti estados unidos st, just a few steps on av tijarana buffet el Carmen... international buffet, AND clóse to cita Pepe's chiringo a canarian fav... there aré plenty options... as plenty of gay bars for any taste....

[@thundercatsito]

AND for a juicy yummy, BIG steak... Martel. Or Cosmos. Both great.

[@mrrostien]

I was there for the 2017 pride. Best week ever. But going back yearly the yumbo Center is definitely tired and the shops are just the same

[@johnfarrell6433]

It's so funny listening to you about the bunker,,,, believe me what goes on in there would make you blush,,or run for your life,, , I've never been in but heard stories,,, lololol

[@sourich585]

Pity you didn't go to the cottage Lee 😂 great vlog shold have done it in the evening anyway many thanks for your time and effort all the best Richard and Tanya from Southampton ❤

We were there Christmas 2019 and really enjoyed our visit, can recommend Chinatown for great food.

im off here in june for a week - really looking forward to it -

[@magnificusdominusduxchad4229]

yeah i seen a drag show there a few years ago it was fabulous

[@Fievelavie]

Oh and the kinky gay stuff happens inside certain places. U do not see it if u don’t want too. In the evening families with little children are visiting Yumbo too. So there is nothing to worry about. No one bothers you. Only looky looky men trying to sell fake stuff. At the square in Yumbo center there is always a little market in the evening.

[@WAHLS]

Went to the Yumbo for a nice refreshing beer following a long walk around Playa Del Ingles during the day - approx 1pm, sat on the next table was an older gentleman wearing very short denim shorts, he was also painted gold from the forehead down (no shirt) and was wearing a spikey dog collar, he was also asleep, he had clearly had a very good night!!!

[@TheMacMaster]

Lol. 😂

[@AnimalMagnetism1965]

I've been many times...oh boy! I think you'd fit right in at the Bears Bar 🐻 🤣

[@linzbarber]

“ Ooh Matron!” ( said in Kenneth Williams voice) 😂😂

[@glynyoung3415]

It’s a completely different venue in the evening it comes alive it’s the gay capital of Europe I’ve been told with some great shows but everyone is welcome I must admit I was shocked when we visited at night we saw some sights but all very friendly.

[@derekhart3308]

Was there 2 years ago for Pride fingers crossed I be back next May (depending on travel costs and covid restrictions lifted completely from UK!!

[@nathonhamilton4524]

its a great place at night, very safe, dont be put off.......its ok

[@NickReels]

I couldn’t be gay. I can’t handle men rejecting me as well as women.

[@ianinnes8063]

I actually got engaged on gran caria in 2003 unfortionally im divorced now but we had a few gd holidays in gc that china town one was great . Huge portions too . We went on our hunnimoon to gc and we discovered the yumbo center in 2004 lots of drag bars and clubs pls all the local gays . Saying that we had a few great nights down there such a party atmosphere we met another family on holiday at same time as us and they took us to the yumbo center one night we had never laughed so much at some of the shows on but apart from that its a gd shopping center and gd food too

[@martinnaylor]

Great vlog there,yes I can imagine it's a totally different world at night and probably really good if it's your thing. While in Tenerife check out the the mini golf opposite Parque Santiago 3 behind the Gran Via supermarket, there are two nine hole courses that are really good especially at night. 👍

[@TheMacMaster]

Hi. Filmed there in the Safari Centre by night. Great place.

[@alexissmet4532]

This is what happens when there is no research done....you go to the most famous gay shopping centre in the world and are shocked by what you see and give a boring middle aged dad review of the centre......oh dear !!!

[@willswomble7274]

You need taking in hand: you should be in the dunes by day, in Andreas or Freidrich from 0500 and in the bars 2300 - 0459!

[@tinakelly8505]

Great In the evenings for everyone . Used to visit Buddies alot on the ground floor and had a tattoo also. Friendly. Good food and of course booze and free entertainment.i do agree that its old looking now and dared but in some ways that's the appeal. Great vlog as usual.Next time go in the evening 😂

[@TheMacMaster]

Will do thank you. 😎👍🏼👍🏼

[@mattsouter3929]

The yumbo and playa del ingles is one of the biggest gay resorts in Europe. It’s absolutely packed in the evenings, and most of the bars are gay but everyone is welcome. You wouldn’t see anything dodgy unless you went in somewhere like the bunker.

[@mattsouter3929]

Dave Lucas just depends, January is probably one of the quietest months

[@jasonking5579]

Is that down the road from maspalomas we stayed at at sun prime Hotel I'm sure it's just down the road it's looks like where we went. Nice place

good morning,Yumbo center was built in the 70s,a bit outdated

[@Rabonics]

I went to a few night outs at the yumbo centre with my Mrs when on holiday there 2 years ago and too be honest I was a bit nervous first night I went cos I'd heard of the place and didn't know what I was in for but had some brilliant night outs there with the Mrs, we went to sparkles for the shows and it was great and really entertaining.

apperently during the pandemic a lot of the big companies sold there fleets of cars hence the shortage

[@robertkates3294]

Funny Boys and Rickys are separate places, Rickys on the ground floor and Funny Boys is above them on the first floor next to Coco Loco Nutz.

[@TheMacMaster]

Cool. 👍🏼

[@Fievelavie]

People are on the beach or in the pool. That’s why it’s so quiet there. You only see a few older people playing mini golf And yes I’ve been at Yumbo cc in the evening too. Sparkles showbar and Ricky’s. There is something for everyone. If u don’t like Yumbo , you can go to kasha’s cc or Plaza or any other cc. Everything is concentrated in a commercial center in Playa del Ingles. It is not much of a problem .Taxis are cheap and the most things are at a short walking distance.
