Flamenco Festivals in Spain: The Essentials You Must Know

If you seek to understand the magnitude of “jondo” art, you cannot limit yourself to books. Flamenco is a living...

A wide-angle photograph of a narrow, lively street in Madrid at dusk. Diverse crowds fill the outdoor restaurant and bar terraces. In the center, a man in jeans and a navy shirt walks towards the camera holding a tote bag with text reading "Feria del Libro de Madrid." Other people dine and walk. A rainbow (Pride) flag hangs from a balcony, and warm string lights stretch across the street between buildings, creating a vibrant, social atmosphere.

What they say about us

Cardamomo is definitely one of the best flamenco shows in Madrid.
— Spanishsabores.com

“Cardamomo is dark, tight, and as the clouds formed inside, and the dancing and wailing began, the rooms became filled with energy. Each of the dancers interpreted the music, as they saw fit, and you felt that you were watching the creation of a dance, every time a new dancer started…dancers entered trances, clicked, and clocked, rapped with the guitarists, all the while the singers added their inspiration to the cause. The dancers, while on this small stage, commanded the audience, and it was a treat to watch them walk off the stage with all humbleness, after being musical assassins on stage.”
— Dave R, TripAdvisor

“Lovely intimate venue with a good view of the stage. Great performers who are clearly passionate and inspiring. Wonderful first experience of flamenco. At just under an hour, it’s a lovely taste of flamenco.”
— Lovetorove, TripAdvisor

Madrid has its fair share of tablaos (flamenco venues). Cardamomo is one not to miss. What is a visit to Madrid without some traditional entertainment? You are assured of this at Cardamomo.

“Me and four of my friends went here to enjoy our first taste of Flamenco. Flamenco, if you don’t know, started as an expression to poetry. There is soulful signing, clapping, snapping and when the dancers begin their performance the emotion and power is intense. We went to the 8 pm performance and all really enjoyed it. I would recommend.”
