A carnival club which made Tenerife history Santa Cruz.
The Carnival club Nifu-Nifa was again much in the limelight long time after the Tenerife Carnival was over in 2010.
The occasion was the passing away of its most renown co-founder Don Henrique.
This carnival organization, which is also known as the Tenerife Fufa or Philharmonic carnival orchestra is also a great friendship club of and for and behalf of the Murgas.
Beside, notice a picture which portrays its carnival club house of Santa Cruz Tenerife.
By the way, we could translate Nifu Nifa with chit chat, shallow talk or with neither good nor bad.
This philharmonic club of Murgas (singing clown musicians) is loved by all Santa Cruzeros. We should emphasize again that Tenerife Carnival with the Murgas wouldn't be what it is today without its famous Don Enrique.
By the way, Don Enrique was a true son of the capital of Tenerife. He was born in Toscal of Santa Cruz in 1924.
Most probably, this exclusive top Canary Islands' association NiFuNiFa will gain more global importance, as the carnival of Tenerife is thriving to become a world heritage event, just now.

There existed another typical Santa Cruz Tenerife club at La Noria in the neighbourhood of the Fufa club. This club called Recreo existed already in 1855 and is now the Friendship Club Circulo de Amistades XII de Enero Tenerife.
Don Henrique was without doubt a very welcome visitor of this one of most notorious friendship clubs Spain, such as the Circulo de Amistades.
