Thank you Elli for your reply. Your information will be very helpful to me succesfully finding work as a singer in Lanzarote. I am happy to do demo nights as I love singing, especially since I have gained more confidence as a singer.

Hi all.

We have set up a page for people to post their info on – not sure if it is of any use to you?

Hi Liz.

Unfortunately entertainers aren’t all enjoying as much work as they once did – simply becauyse venues have been struggling somewhat in the credit crunch. However – this is not to say that you can’t find something. I would recommend coming out for another holiday, and perhaps offering your services as demo nights at bars… so they can hear how good you are. We know of this working for a couple of people very recently.

The very best of luck to you!

Hi Elle,
My partner and I are thinking of moving to Lanzarote. We are going to rent our property in the UK to pay our rent in Lanzarote. For my part I am a singer, could you please give me any information that might help me in finding work as a singer in the Peurto Del Carmen region.We visited in December last year and fell in love with the Island.

Hi there Phoenix. Your friends are right in that things are tough. All the resorts are struggling right now – and the volcano nonsense certainly hasn’t made life any easier. Yes, Playa Blanca seems to have less empty bars or places closing than the other resorts… but it’s not the miraculous goldmine that some think it is. Times are tough – and staff are being cut all over.

My honest advice is to bide your time and save your money hon. Your dream can wait a little while until things settle down a bit I’m sure.

My partner and I had a holiday in Lanzarote in April this year (Costa Teguise) and absolutely fell in love with the place. I had previously been to Tenerife a couple of times and having travelled a lot over the past 10 years have decided that Lanzarote is the ideal place for us.

Having said that, it’s the working arrangement that bothers me. I made some useful contacts on the holiday and they too said that getting work is difficult. Realistically, do the bars in Costa Teguise do well? Or is it only further down in Playa Blanca that you’re guaranteed a healthier market?

Me and the wife are looking to move there only if she can find a job as a nurse. She is qualified but is finding nothing on the internet regarding nurseing vacancies. Any one point me to the right place. Me bone can do with the sun. Cheers. Great forum

Hi Hanna. Sorry about the delay… your message slipped by unnoticed )

I would speak to hotels and lesiure centres first of all, and send them your details… following up with a phone call.

You could also look at setting up on your own as a self employed person? Perhaps organising groups in people’s homes… or hiring a room in a hotel for it.

Good luck – and do let us know how you get on.
