About the Show

Tablao El Arenal takes its name from the Arenal neighborhood in Seville between the Cathedral and the Guadalquivir river. The central location, just a few blocks from the Maestranza bullring, is within a typical 17th century Andalusian building which has been transformed into an intimate performance space in the style of the traditional tablaos. The venue has a capacity for up 110 guests and Tablao El Arenal holds two nightly performances which last approximately 60 minutes and feature some of Seville's best flamenco.

Founded over 25 years ago, several of the regular artists have won national and international dance awards. Tablao El Arenal has also been designated as the best flamenco show in Seville by the New York Times. The performance consists of seventeen different artists who cover a variety of the flamenco palos (styles), always with the dedication to offer a pure and authentic show. The performers’ inspiration comes from Curro Velez, former dancer as well as founder and owner of the tablao, who once said "I was born in Triana and I am a gypsy. What I present is truly authentic; the wealth of popular Andalusian flamenco culture that has taken on a universal dimension through those who share my blood".

The decoration and atmosphere in the main dining room is pure Andalusian. Several antique prints and flamenco posters line the walls, featuring themes typical of Seville such as the April Fair. Seating is around three quarters of the stage.  As a smaller venue Tablao El Arenal offers a good view from any location in the room.

Reviews

Great show! The dancers, singers, and guitar player are excellent. The costumes and the dancing was so expressive. I would recommend going for the show + tapas. You'll get better seats and the tapas are really good. We went on a weekday and during low season and sat really close to the stage.
The show was really good - there were various parts to the show which we really enjoyed. The tapas beforehand were delicious - it was almost too much food for me. The reason I gave it 4 stars is because we got there early and there was a seating before us. However it was raining outside so I wasn’t great standing outside in the rain. Knowing that seating was to be punctual at 8:30 would have been useful information
Very expensive. Must be on the "list" to get tourists in. As highly recommended by the Tourist Information. Service was quick and efficient. The food was delicious. Dancers were great, but all very staged. You weren't able to take photos or videos. Was an expensive experience. Probably worthwhile looking for a local bar who did Flamenco....
My wife and I really enjoyed this show when we were in Seville. Would highly recommend a Flamenco performance for any first timers to Spain. Dancers and vocalists were great. Very entertaining and authentic demonstration by the entire cast. Buy tickets ahead of time, as the shows sell out quickly.
Good performance. A bit noisy from heel tapping during the show. Ticket is more expensive than other organizers. No Parking space nearby.
We were recommended this place by a local friend, and it did not disappoint at ALL. We opted for the full dinner, and it’s a good thing we did because the food was AMAZING. So so so delicious. (Pictured is the appetizer!) the wait staff was working very hard and did a great job. Everything was timed perfectly. The bottle of red was 10/10. The champagne to finish was a nice touch. For the second plate, I chose the salmon avocado mix and it was so delicious- I recommend! All of the performers were superb, but we especially enjoyed the male dancer! We loved his energy and his style. Arrive early for the line just to get as close to the stage as possible! We were towards the back and still had a great view though. I respect the “no camera” policy. Put your phone down, enjoy the beauty. Nothing ruins a show more than being blocked by others phones. It was 100% worth the price of a full dinner and show. So happy we got to experience something so special and traditional.
