Live Flamenco Music and Performance

Come join this spectacular Live Flamenco Night in Battersea, curated in collaboration with internationally renowned London based Flamenco artist Maria Vega.

This October 6th, we go back in time and return to the roots of flamenco. Different rhythms, verses and steps draw from a complex historical web, narrating stories that echo the past, the present, a feeling, a groove. Come take this journey with us and discover the origins of Flamenco and the passion it continues to inspire today.

Taking place at the atmospheric Battersea Barge overlooking the River Thames, we promise a night for absolutely everyone, from dancers to music lovers, young, old, beginner or pro! Battersea Barge is only a 10-minute walk from Vauxhall tube station, in Nine Elms.

Doors open 7 pm – Grab a drink and find a seat on this unique river boat. A true hidden gem and well-worth the journey.

7.45-8.45 pm – Flamenco workshop with Natalia Garcia Huidobro. This is a great opportunity for all those who have always wanted to dance Flamenco but never found the time. Expect a fun and informal workshop, addressing both dancers and non-dancers and exploring the different rhythms that will later be brought up in the performance

9.00 pm – Live Flamenco Performance
