For the price we paid (8 euro each, student price) it was OK. A band of 3 guys singing Spanish songs, and 2 Flamenco dancers, though one of them was actually dancing for only 2 minutes. We wanted to see a Flamenco show, something short and not expansive, and that is what we got.

A great place to see authentic Flamenco. We paid 10 euros for a half hour show. It is a small venue so it is worth pre booking tickets. There were several people who formed the band and a male and female dancer. It felt like all the performers were very much in tune and they delivered a very intense performance.

A great recommendation to get a flavour of Spanish dance and music - a half hour show which is great value and really hits the spot. A small club with great friendly atmosphere and a chance to view flamenco in this nicely put together show. Central location, Great value and not bad prices for drinks etc. well worth the visit.

We booked this on-line before we flew, and I'm glad we did. Having read the reviews here, we booked the 8:30 show but arrived at 8 to find a queue of 20 people already. About 20 past, a guy called those with tickets to the front so we got in with the first 10 or so people and got great... More

If you want a taste of flamenco at a reasonable price this is a good choice. Small and friendly enough for you to feel part of the show

After reviews on trip advisor we booked this venue on line. My wife and I really enjoyed it due to its cosy nature and the fact that the dancers and musicians gave it there all for the short time you are there. Basically the actual show last's 30 minutes. We watched the show and enjoyed the jug of sangria, which... More

What can I say! This was the best night of my life. I went for the dancing but loved both the dancing and the amazing voices of the singers. The guitar player was fantastic!!! A great night out, and so cheap when you consider the caliber of the performance. This was our second time and I would definitely go again... More

Los Tarantos has a central location at Plaza Royal in Barcelona, it is not expensive and present good dancers and musicians. It was my third time there, before I have taken my daughters and at this time I took my mother. Although it is a short show, musicians and dancers were very good as before, specially the female dancer who... More

I organised a trip to Tarantos as part of a Hen weekend in Barcelona. There were 9 of us, so I booked online before travelling and printed off the tickets - easy! It was 8 euros each. When we got there we joined the quicker queue for those who had tickets. We went to the Saturday night show at 22.30,... More
