House Guide: Everything You Want to Know About Tablao 1911

Organizing a special night in Madrid is part of the excitement of the journey, and we want your visit to our tablao to be, quite simply, perfect. Like any house with more than a century of history, there are secrets, rhythms, and little things worth knowing to enjoy it to the fullest.

So here you have, from us to you, the answers to all the questions we’re often asked. Consider this a conversation to help you prepare for a night that, we assure you, you won’t forget.

About the Show: Art and Artists

What kind of show will I see?

Get ready, because what you’ll witness is the largest flamenco show in the city. On stage there aren’t just three or four performers, but a whirlwind of talent: ten professionals forming a full ensemble. You’ll enjoy male and female dancers, the sound of the guitar, the beat of the percussion, and even the melody of a saxophone or a flute that will give you goosebumps.

Does the show change or is it always the same?

Never. And that’s one of the things that makes us unique. Here, art is alive, which is why we change the cast of artists every week. We bring top talent from across Spain so the stage energy is constantly renewed. Flamenco is improvisation, it’s the feeling of the moment. The night you attend will be unrepeatable.

What are the show times and duration?

There are several shows every day, seven days a week: at 6:00 pm, 7:30 pm, 9:00 pm and 10:30 pm. Each show is a full hour of non-stop art.

Is it a show aimed at tourists?

No. On our stage perform artists who are respected in the flamenco world and admired by connoisseurs. It’s high-quality flamenco.
Are travelers welcome? Absolutely! We love being the gateway to true flamenco.
