Flamenco in Seville

Seville is to Flamenco what Flamenco is to Seville; a city and an art that have gone hand and hand for centuries. If Andalusia is the capital of flamenco, than Seville is the heart, and the city is full of street corners, tablaos, and bars where you can take in the flamenco atmosphere.

Possibly the best flamenco can be enjoyed every two years throughout September during the Flamenco Biennial of Seville, however the city offers fantastic performances all throughout the year. One cannot name every single bar, club, school, or association offering Flamenco, as there are countless and certainly cannot be missed.
