About the Show

The Tablao de Carmen owes its name to the famous flamenco dancer Carmen Amaya, who was born in the gypsy quarter of Somorrostro. Amaya made her debut in 1929 for the King of Spain, Alfonso XIII, in the very same space which is now Tablao de Carmen. Both the location and the venue itself offer special details in addition to the flamenco show. Located within the Poble Espanyol de Montjuïc, one of Barcelona´s most important city parks constructed for the 1929 World Exhibition, the tablao shares its grounds with the Fuente Mágica, el Teatro Griego (Greek Theatre), and the Fundación Miró. This area has the feel of a village, with narrow streets, small shops and restaurants.

The venue itself is divided into three spaces, all of which create a typical Andalusian setting for the performances. The main area is the tablao, which accommodates approximately 150 persons and features multiple levels of seating as well as high ceilings. The decoration and colors in the performance area are inspired by the famous Feria de Abril in Seville. Next is an exact reproduction of a "patio cordobés", with all of the details and ambience of the typical homes of Cordoba in southern Spain. Finally, the Freiduría Tio Pepe serves a variety of seafood and other regional dishes along with the typical drink of any Feria: cold fino (sherry).

The Tablao de Carmen was founded in 1988, and features a mix of established and up and coming performers in the Spanish flamenco scene. Two nightly performances last approximately one hour, covering a variety of flamenco styles while individually focusing on the traditional elements of a flamenco performance: the music, song and dance. Ticket packages include the show with drink, tapas or dinner. Special discounts are available for children age 4 - 13 as well as groups. With a reservation in Tablao de Carmen you can enter the exhibition of "Poble Espanyol" for free from 16:00 (4pm) on the day of the show.

Reviews

I had a wonderful dinner, and entertaining evening. The flamenco dancing was fun, and the servers were very attentive throughout the show. And the food was interesting. Even met the owner and got a tour of the building after dinner. It was a very enjoyable night.
Nice restaurant in an old fashioned village. Village is super cute and worth visiting. We had a great time. Loved the energy of the performers. Staff was nice and attentive.
Incredible. We came here tonight for the early performance and we were blown away. The staff are amazing and so friendly. We chose the tapas and show option and we were very impressed. A full jug of the nicest sangria I've ever had and so much tapas, and dessert! The performance was absolutely amazing and I found myself getting very emotional! The performers have great chemistry and a great connection that really comes across on stage. Would highly recommend to anyone.
Went on Monday. The show and the dinner were wonderful. Highly recommended. The show was definitely the highlight of out trip to Barcelona. One cannot simply go to Spain without visiting a Tablao.
Amazing performance! There are different ticket prices depending on if you’re going to add dinner, tapas, or just having a drink which is a nice option if you’re on a budget. The show felt a little short and perhaps this is solely because it’s so great you just want to see more. Captivating all in all, highly recommend and I look forward to coming back.
Only giving 5 stars because I can't give 10!!! Cannot say enough wonderful things about our experience. The show was unbelievable, the food was delicious (and they give you so much!) And the service was impeccable! Recommend to everyone looking for a Flamenco show in Barcelona!
