For one month, Seville brings together two of its great hallmarks: gastronomy and flamenco. From September 25 to October 25, 2026, the 25th Gastronomic Days of the Hotels of Seville and Province are held under the slogan Sabor a Flamenco, with proposals created especially for the occasion at 26 hotels in the city and province.
The idea is simple: to turn cuisine into another way of approaching flamenco. Participating establishments offer dishes, tapas or menus inspired by flamenco styles, artists, places and flavors linked to Andalusia.
For anyone visiting Seville during these dates, the plan can go one step further: gastronomy before or after, and live flamenco in a tablao.
On our flamenco in Seville page you can compare tablaos, times, prices, locations and ticket options to fit the show into your itinerary.
Quick answer: Sabor a Flamenco Seville 2026 takes place from September 25 to October 25 at 26 hotels in Seville and the province. Each establishment interprets flamenco through tapas, dishes or special menus. To complete the experience, the most practical option is to choose your dining time first and then book a nearby tablao that fits the area and schedule.
Sabor a Flamenco is the title chosen for the 25th Gastronomic Days of the Hotels of Seville and Province. The 2026 edition runs from September 25 to October 25 and brings together 26 establishments in Seville city and other parts of the province.
The format does not require every hotel to offer the same experience. Some present a selection of tapas or special dishes on their regular menu; others have created complete menus. This variety makes it possible to adapt the plan to your available time, budget and the schedule of the flamenco show you want to book.
Participating hotels include, among others, Hotel Alfonso XIII, Eurostars Torre Sevilla, Gran Meliá Colón, EME Catedral Mercer, CoolRooms Palacio Villapanés, Los Seises, Unuk Vincci Selección, Don Ramón, Mercer Plaza Sevilla, Fernando III, Giralda Center, Hospes Las Casas del Rey de Baeza, NH Plaza de Armas, Meliá Sevilla, Querencia, Vincci La Rábida, Vincci Molviedro and Convento La Gloria, as well as establishments in other towns in the province.
One of the strengths of the event is that there is no single “flamenco menu”. Each kitchen interprets the theme differently, using names, ingredients and references from the flamenco imagination.
If your priority is attending a tablao and you do not want a long meal to dictate your schedule, tapas or individual dishes are especially practical.
Other establishments have created more structured menus. Examples for 2026 include:
If you choose a complete menu, check the show time first and leave enough time to reach the tablao without rushing.
The best combination depends on three factors: where you are going to eat, what time you want to see flamenco and how much time you want to devote to each part of the experience.
This is the easiest option if you want to enjoy a complete menu. You can book lunch at one of the participating hotels, spend a few hours exploring the historic center and finish the day at a tablao.
Central Seville makes it easy to connect areas such as Santa Cruz, the Cathedral, Plaza Nueva, La Encarnación or Dueñas with different shows.
For a more dynamic afternoon, a tapa or à la carte dish is easier to fit in. This lets you try one of the event’s creations without turning the gastronomic part into a long dinner.
Some travelers prefer to make flamenco the central moment of the evening and have dinner afterwards. In that case, check the kitchen hours of your chosen establishment and the estimated duration of the show.
As a practical guideline, we recommend arriving at the tablao 15 to 30 minutes before the start, depending on the venue’s instructions and your ticket type.
On flamenco in Seville you can compare times, ticket options and locations to build the combination that best fits your visit.
If you want to reduce travel time, the most effective approach is to build your itinerary by area.
This is one of the easiest areas for combining gastronomy, sightseeing and flamenco. Nearby participating hotels include EME Catedral Mercer, Los Seises, Fernando III, Querencia and Convento La Gloria, together with several tablaos within walking distance.
It can be a good choice for first-time visitors who want to concentrate much of the experience in the historic center.
Gran Meliá Colón, Mercer Plaza Sevilla, Vincci La Rábida and Vincci Molviedro make it possible to arrange the gastronomic part of the plan close to busy central areas. From there, you can continue on foot to different flamenco venues.
Meliá Sevilla, Meliá Lebreros, Novotel Sevilla, Giralda Center and Sevilla Center broaden the options beyond the monumental core. If you are staying in this area, it may make sense to choose the gastronomic proposal here and then head into the center for the show, or do the route in reverse.
No. The event is designed to bring hotel dining closer to both visitors and local residents. You can go only to the restaurant or the relevant gastronomic space.
It is advisable to confirm the conditions of each proposal, especially for fixed menus or when advance booking is required.
It depends on the establishment and the proposal you choose. Tapas or à la carte dishes may offer more flexibility, while complete menus may require a reservation or be subject to availability.
For the flamenco tablao we do recommend booking in advance. October is a busy cultural month in Seville and shows have limited capacity.

The key is to avoid improvising the timing of both parts of the plan: first set your lunch or dinner time and then fit the tablao performance around it with a reasonable buffer.
The Sabor a Flamenco proposal is especially interesting when understood as a dialogue between two cultural languages. Flamenco is not limited to the stage, and gastronomy here is more than an accompaniment: both form part of the identity through which Seville presents itself to visitors.
Dish names refer to soleás, alegrías, bulerías, seguiriyas or historic flamenco figures, but the real value of the plan appears when that culinary inspiration is combined with a live performance.
Eating “to the compás” can be the beginning; hearing singing, guitar and dance just a few meters from the stage is what completes the experience.
