Cynthia Cano arrives — a flamenco dancer from Murcia trained in the finest conservatories and stages in the world. Finalist at the International Festival of Cante de las Minas — the first woman from Murcia in history to achieve it — and Best Revelation Award at the Cumbre Flamenca de Murcia. Her exquisite technique and unique personality make her dancing a torrent of emotions.
She has shared the stage with Antonio Canales, Manuela Carrasco and Javier Latorre. She has brought flamenco to Cuba, Mexico, Colombia, Chile, France and Morocco. And now she performs on Plaza de Santa Ana.
April 29 is International Dance Day. A date that UNESCO chose to celebrate a universal art that crosses cultures, borders, and centuries. And in Madrid, there is a place where this art is not celebrated with institutional events — it is celebrated live, on the stage, just a few meters away from you.
Tablao Flamenco 1911 has been the stage for Spain’s best male and female dancers for over a century. If you are looking for plans for Dance Day in Madrid, here dance is not a concept — it is what happens every night.
Flamenco and Escuela Bolera: two languages of Spanish dance
At Tablao Flamenco 1911 we have had the privilege of hosting not only the purest flamenco but also the Escuela Bolera, one of the most refined and lesser-known forms of Spanish dance for the general public. Two different languages, the same cultural root.
If you want to better understand the relationship between these two disciplines, we invite you to discover what Escuela Bolera is and why it is part of the heritage of Spanish dance.
Why April 29 is International Dance Day
In 1982, the International Theatre Institute of UNESCO chose April 29 as International Dance Day as a tribute to Jean-Georges Noverre, the creator of modern ballet. Since then, every year the world celebrates dance in all its forms — classical, contemporary, folkloric, and also flamenco.
Because flamenco is dance. One of the oldest, most complex, and most exciting that exist.
How to celebrate Dance Day in Madrid
If you are in Madrid on April 29 and want to experience it as it deserves, Tablao Flamenco 1911 proposes a special night with one of its best casts of artists. Live dance, singing, and guitar, in a historic space that the Madrid City Council recognized in 2026 with the Madrid Memory Plaque.
It is not a tribute to dance. It is dance.
-
An intimate night with top-tier dancers
-
The oldest tablao in the world, active since 1911
-
Right in the center of Madrid, Plaza de Santa Ana
Why April 29 at Tablao Flamenco 1911
Among all the plans for International Dance Day in Madrid, there is a difference between seeing dance and feeling it. At Tablao Flamenco 1911, the reduced capacity places the audience just a few meters from the stage. There are no screens, no intermediaries. Only artists who have spent their whole lives dedicated to an art that the entire world celebrates on April 29.
A date like this deserves something more than a YouTube video.

November 16 is World Flamenco Day. A date that UNESCO chose to remind the world that this art is an Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity. And in Madrid, there is only one place where this celebration truly makes sense.
Tablao Flamenco 1911 has been the stage for the most authentic flamenco in Plaza de Santa Ana for over a century. If you are looking for plans for Flamenco Day in Madrid, here art is not celebrated with speeches — it is celebrated on the stage, just a few meters away from you.
What is World Flamenco Day and why is it celebrated on November 16
In 2010, UNESCO declared flamenco an Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity. To commemorate this date, every November 16, World Flamenco Day is celebrated around the world — a recognition of an art born in Andalusia that today belongs to everyone.
It is a day to listen, to see, to feel. Not to read about it in an article. That is what we are here for.
