FADO SHOW WITH DINNER (3 HRS)(70 EUR)

A shawl, a Portuguese guitar, a voice and a lot of feeling. A symbol of Portugal, this simple image can describe fado, a world’s music born in Portugal. In its essence, it sings to feeling, to the disillusionment of love, to the longing for someone who went away, to daily life and to conquests. The ups and downs of life are an infinite source of inspiration. They say that fado is the feeling which comes out from the Portuguese soul and that no divisions must be made. However, some venture to distinguish between professionals and aficionados. The former makes of her/his voice her/his livelihood. The latter, also known as vadio, has other characteristics, even if the nostalgic nature is the same. - Round-trip bus service from and to the Hotel.

the timeless beauty of the flamenco dresses

, iconic and constantly evolving, yet always true to their roots.

The evening will begin with a

delicious dinner

, and once we have our

glass of sangria

in hand, a group of

dancers, singers, and musicians, on a nearby stage, will make us feel the full passion and power of flamenco

. They will showcase few of its most well-known artistic forms: bulerías, seguidillas, fandangos, and sevillanas.

Don´t miss the unique opportunity to immerse yourself in this

fusion of flamenco art and rich Spanish cuisine

, one of the most diverse in the world! Awaken your emotions and let yourself be carried away by the soul of flamenco, the singing, the clapping, and the dancing on this musical journey.
