About the Show

El Templo del Flamenco is located in the Albaizin quarter of Granada. The neighborhood is a protected World Heritage site, full of winding pedestrian streets with charming houses offering wonderful views of the city center. El Templo del Flamenco opened in 2012 in what is one of the largest flamenco cave venues in all of Granada. Local legend describes the cave as a former temple, which explains the larger dimensions as well as the three main chambers forming the shape of a cross. The stage has been carefully placed so seating from each chamber has an unobstructed view of the performance. During the renovations the owners were careful to respect the historic and typical nature of the cave while including some elegant touches which are unique to these types of venues in Granada.

The flamenco shows in El Templo del Flamenco are lasting one hour and fifteen minutes with between six and eight artists. The venue offers ticket options for the show with drink or a fixed price menu which features quality, regional cuisine. There is also a full staff on hand to provide an efficient and personalized service to all those attending.

The artistic direction of the cave is under Antonio Vallejo, who also serves as the Artistic Director for the Municipal Flamenco School of Granada. Vallejo has guided many young artists to professional level and national flamenco competitions. A talented choreographer, he has taught and performed across the world, visiting more than 40 different countries. Vallejo also performs regularly at El Templo del Flamenco along with several other gifted musicians and dancers. The quality of the show reflects their involvement in the local and national flamenco scene. The flamenco is refreshingly unique to the city and includes a good mix of up and coming talent as well as experienced performers.

Reviews

So many shows in Granada offer the authentic flamenco experience, and I'm sure they all are, so it is so difficult to choose which one to attend. I chose this one because they perform in a cave, and it was not too far for me to walk alone in the dark. And I can't rave enough about how good and authentic it was. There was no English anywhere (apparently there was a complaint about this in a precious review), bit this just made it all the more authentic, speaking Spanish from the soul and they danced and told a story. You don't need English to be absorbed into the language, the song, the music and the emotion. It is small, intimate and really wonderful to watch. I really recommend it!
Took us over an hour to actually find the place. I suggest getting a taxi to avoid getting lost in the small streets. We had written directions and used Google maps and still got lost. We missed half the show bit what we did see, was excellent. Very authentic. Good atmosphere and friendly staff too.
Unique location (but tricky to find, so make sure you start your journey early, and don't be dissauded by what looks like a residential neighborhood) The dancers and musicians were great--very professional. The ambience in the cave was also unique and enjoyable. But don't forget ear plugs for little ones and those with sensitive ears (the sound bounces off the cave walls) We didn't eat but had drinks--service was friendly and good. Highly recommend.
Amazing Flamenco experience with food. The service was great. Music and dancers were amazing .
This show was absolutely fantastic. The power, intensity of the music and performance overwhelmed me by its beauty to the point that I had to fight back tears. Our food was very good too. I highly recommend viewing this performance and helping keep the purity of this art form alive.
Went here on Tuesday March 26th. Booked through get your guide. If you read any reviews saying this place is hard to find, that is n understatement. Was raining and our cab wouldn’t take us all the way up. When we got out of the cab he pointed us up some stairs and then we wandered around in the dark and rain trying to find the place. There are no signs or anything to assist that we could see. Once inside the staff were very nice and sat us right away. Warning, if you don’t speak Spanish you will be lost. They explain nothing in English and just go right into their dancing. I do not recommend unless you know some Spanish or have an interpreter with you. The food was better than average and the servers were very good. I will say the dancers are very passionate but without context it was all wasted on me.
