Tablao de Carmen flamenco show
El Tablao de Carmen is an authentic and spectacular flamenco show in the Spanish village Poble Espanyol on Montjuic hill. The Tablao de Carmen show is a tribute to the legendary flamenco dancer Carmen Amaya who was a Catalan gypsy from in the Somorrostro shanty town on Barcelona's coast - where Barcelona's beaches are now.

She became world famous and performed worldwide including in the White House in Washington. In 1929 she danced for Spanish King Alfonso XIII to mark the inauguration of the Poble Espanyol for the 1929 Universal Exposition in Barcelona at the very location now occupied by the flamenco bar Tablao de Carmen.

TICKETS Tablao de Carmen flamenco show



The Tablao de Carmen is a 75 minute flamenco show featuring established flamenco artists and new young talent. As an authentic tablao show there is no formal choreography. Each artist interprets his or her part individually and the rest follow the beat, marking the rhythm, accompanying it and strengthening it. This improvisation constitutes a key element of flamenco and is directly related to the communication between the artists themselves, and between them and the audience. The audience participates in the whole show with its clapping and exclamations and this communication means that no two shows are ever the same. Great show. Good tapas.
