Peña La Platería

Top choice in Granada


Founded in 1949, La Platería claims to be Spain's oldest flamenco club. Unlike some of Andalucía's more private clubs, it regularly opens its doors to nonmembers for soulful, foot-stomping performances on Thursday nights at 10pm, as well as on other sporadic occasions. Tapas and drinks are available. Book ahead!
