On 2001 the Island Government of Tenerife constituted Metrotenerife that was originally founded to launch an alternative means of transport in the form of railway lines on the island of Tenerife. Tenerife tramway Line 1 was opened on 2 June 2007 and two years later Line 2. Since the beginning of Metrotenerife they has transported more than 132 million passengers. In a few weeks Santa Cruz will live a great celebration, the 10th Anniversary of the Tenerife Tram. Metrotenerife is working on a full program of recreational activities with live music performances, presents for the tram users; as well as a Post-Office Tram with material of the 10th anniversary and a philatelic exhibition about trams and public transports history. The main event will be the European Tramdriver Championship on the 4th of June. During this international championship, Metrotenerife has planned more activities such as painting and balloon sculpture workshop for children, live music performances in Plaza de Europa, a bouncy tram of 15 meter, etc. We are really looking forward to celebrate the 10th birthday of Metrotenerife together with the 6th European TramDriver Championship
