All throughout its history, Corral de la Morería has performed with some of the most outstanding flamenco professionals. There have also been leading figures among guest artists, who have turned it into one of the best places to enjoy flamenco in the capital of Madrid.
The establishment is located in the historic centre of Madrid, next to the beautiful Royal Palace, that is visited by many tourists. The stage is decorated in such a way, that it reminds you of an original flamenco tablao (an original flamenco platform floor). It is like you have gone way back to the old days…
It is also very popular with famous people, so don’t be surprised if you sit next to a celebrity, politician or royalty.
In addition to enjoying excellent flamenco live shows here, they have also opened a high quality restaurant in the oldest flamenco venue in Madrid on October 10, 2017. Its superb chef is called David García, who – after only nearly two years as chef in the kitchen of restaurant Álbora – got a Michelin star. He has started a new adventure now at Corral de la Morería, as he was looking for something more to offer his clients.
