Experiencing the art of flamenco is a must-do part of any trip to Granada. Enjoy an incredible performance of Andalusian culture in a traditional cave in the heart of Sacromonte.
Flamenco in Sacromonte: what to expect?
The Los Tarantos caves are a perfect place to feel and discover the history of the art and culture of Granada. Founded in 1972, from the beginning they have been one of the best places in the city to experience the flamenco zambra thanks to the quality of their shows.
These caves are located in the heart of the famous Sacromonte neighbourhood, considered one of the most beautiful in Granada and where the first gypsy and Jewish communities of the city settled. Artists such as Vitorino de Pinos, Guzán Albea, Julio Terremoto, La Coneja, Bienvenido Amaya, Antonio El chispita or Paquito Amaya have performed in the Los Tarantos Caves throughout its history.
Moreover, this place has served as a springboard for many dancers, guitarists and singers to achieve successful careers in the world of flamenco.
Gypsy Zamba at Los Tarantos
The flamenco show at Los Tarantos Caves is one of the best ways to immerse yourself in this art form, declared Intangible Cultural Heritage by UNESCO in 2010.
For an hour, you'll admire the authentic gypsy zambra, a flamenco palo original to the gypsies of Granada. However, due to the mixture of cultures in Andalusia throughout its history, its origins remain a mystery. However, the gypsy zambra was born in Sacromonte, so you're in the best place to enjoy this flamenco song and dance.
The cuadro flamenco in the Los Tarantos Caves is made up of a great cast of artists, many of them considered to be authentic figures of flamenco in Granada. All of them give their all in every performance, showing all their art in the tablao.
Moreover, during the show you'll enjoy a drink of your choice between a glass of wine, a beer, a soft drink or a glass of sangria. Can you think of a better plan to spend an unforgettable night in the city of the Alhambra?
