    Show was great, Viator wasn’t helpful on how to get tickets

    thereedsnc, Aug 2026
    The show is held at a old “bull ring” but not outside, it was under the seating area of the transitional seats of the bull ring, so inside. It was a small room & pretty hot. VIator want detailed in how to get your tickets and we thought you had to go ahead of time to pick them up, we did and they were closed. Just just up that night and your James is on a list, no bar code scanner. As others mentioned, it was a great show!!

    Fantastic show if you...

    Fantastic show if you enjoy cultural/traditional dance and music. Very professional dancers - dances are expertly performed, perfectly together. Loved the show

    Not a highlight

    deborahgodbold, Feb 2020
    Dancers were very good but at the start and end of show an elderly man talked in Spanish at length, particularly at the end. There was no translated handout available. I think he was telling his life stories because he was very emotional . He spoilt the atmosphere created by the last dance, a wonderful Maypole dance. Venue hard to find. Taxi drivers didn’t know.
