FLAMENCO IN JEREZ
Jerez is considered the Birthplace of Flamenco. This city has been, since the turn of the last century, the city which has produced the most, and best, singers, dancers and guitarists in the whole history of Flamenco. The most important churches in Jerez, built after the Christian conquest of the city, have lent their names to its most traditional quarters: Santiago and San Miguel, where the roots of the Bulería are to be found.
Jerez offers the very best of Flamenco each day in its famous tablaos, in addition to some very interesting flamenco performances: from flamenco recitals in the numerous Peña Flamenca clubs to be found dotted around the city, Jerez is famous for its long - standing Flamenco tradition, making it an excellent place to watch this great art. Flamenco dancing is centered on the Barrio de Santiago which faces the cathedral.
