Guitar, song and dance in a tablao
Flamenco evening
Flamenco is performed in small rooms called tablaos, with a guitarist, a singer and dancers a few metres from the audience. Madrid has the most, including Casa Patas, which seats about 130, and Cardamomo, which runs shows and workshops for corporate groups.
Larger groups split across two shows, or book a private evening with a dinner before it.
- Time
- A show lasts about an hour, usually in the evening, with dinner before or after.
- Group size
- Tablaos suit groups of 20 to 130. Bigger groups are split or given a private performance.
- As the gala night
- A private show, with a seated dinner in the same room.
- Food
- Tapas and set menus. Vegetarian and Jain plates are agreed with the venue beforehand.
