Flamenco to Siviglia

One of the typical dances of the Andalusian tradition is certainly the flamenco, in Seville it is possible to attend incredible and beautiful shows that you absolutely must not miss. For the uninitiated, flamenco is a traditional dance of the gypsies of southern Spain. In this post I will tell you about some places and bars where to attend performances of Flamenco in Seville.

A brief history of Flamenco

The Flamenco dance is typical of the gypsy population, that is the gypsies of Andalucia. It seems that this particular dance originated in the second half of the 700th century, practiced mainly by gypsies in a clandestine way because they were not free to express their traditions within the kingdom. Thanks to Charles III, this population obtained the consent of free circulation, thus allowing the Flamenco to spread throughout the south and throughout Spain.

The city of Seville is practically the center of Flamenco dance, then follow the city of Granada and a few others in southern Spain. In the capital of the Andalusian region it is possible to see shows every day, some even free of charge.

One of the places where you can attend a free Flamenco performance è LOLA OF THE KINGSit is a small place where the owner "Lola" together with her husband perform every day (or almost) to entertain customers. It is a truly unique and very famous place in the flamenco scene and is located atAvenida de Blas Infante, 6.



It's possible attend the shows from Wednesday to Saturday from 12.00 with free admission and with drink at really interesting and reasonable prices. Enjoy flamenco with a good glass of Andalusian wine it could truly be a unique experience and not to be missed!

Then there is the Carboneria: it is another historical place that presents one of the typical features of Tablao, a particular bar where there are flamenco shows and also spontaneous dances by customers on Thursday evenings. The Carboneria is located near the church Santa Cruz to Calle Levis 18. Admission is completely free.
