Flamenco is a traditional southern dance that you see a lot in Seville.
Besides the street performers that you see a lot at Plaza d'España or Puerta Jerez, there are also many flamenco shows here. If you come to visit Seville, it is certainly a loss if you have not seen flamenco.
I went to a flamenco show with some colleagues and I'm going to tell you a bit more about this.
The show we went to is called “Tablao el arenal”. When you go to the show you can choose between 3 different options.
- Going to the show with a drink.
- Go to the show and eat some tapas, so be there earlier. 5 tapas dishes and a drink.
- The show with a complete dinner, for this also be present earlier.
The show
During this show you will see different dancers, you really get the feeling that you belong completely in the Spanish culture. The dancers have mastered the dance so well, because most learn this dance at a very young age and then continue to learn it for years at an academy. We did not have the feeling that we were there among the tourists, but that we really belonged to the Spanish culture. The show was quite an experience and was definitely worth watching and super fun as a night out.
