Why we recommend it
Flamenco belongs to Andalusia, but Barcelona has a long tradition of it, and Tablao Cordobés has been part of that scene since 1970. A tablao is an intimate venue rather than a theatre, so the dancers' footwork, the singer's voice and the guitarist's playing are close enough to feel.
Performances take place in the evening, and you can pair a show with dinner from the tablao's own restaurant. Book ahead, especially at weekends, and arrive early if you want a good view. Its position on the lower Rambla makes it easy to combine with an evening walk through the Gothic Quarter.
