Many visitors to Barcelona, Spain want to be able to see flamenco while they are in the city. After all, it is one of the things so many of us equate with Spain — that beautiful, flamboyant, exotic folk dance.
With many places to go to see a flamenco show in Barcelona, however, it can be difficult to know where to go.
That is why I always recommend heading to Los Tarantos Barcelona. One of the best places in the city, and one that has been around for more than 50 years.
Los Tarantos Barcelona is located in the Ciutat Vella quarter of the city, and offers several live flamenco performances every night of the week.
One of the many reasons I recommend Los Tarantos Barcelona as one of the best places in Barcelona for live flamenco is the shows are short (just 30 minutes), which gives you a chance to familiarize yourself with the art without feeling too overwhelmed.
The venue’s flamenco dancers are wonderful too, with many years of experience, and tickets are affordable. In most cases, just 10 euros a ticket for a half hour show.
They also get some of the best and most famous flamenco dancers, guitar players and singers, so what you see here is the true art of flamenco. As the venue is small, and you end up seated close to the stage, it is a wonderful place to get your first taste of the beautiful folk dance of flamenco.
You can learn more about Los Tarantos Barcelona on the Flamenco Tickets website, where you can also book tickets for all of their three nightly shows.
As for the club’s location, you will find Los Tarantos Barcelona at Plaça Reial 17, Barcelona.
And, of course, if you are going to be in Barcelona, remember to book your hotel room well in advance if you want the best deals.
