The Tablao Flamenco Albuquerque Saturday Dinner Show is a premier cultural event held at the Hotel Albuquerque at Old Town. Presented by the National Institute of Flamenco, the event pairs a world-class flamenco performance with a chef-curated four-course meal.
As of early 2026, the venue operates on a seasonal winter schedule with earlier showtimes:
Note: For the Summer schedule (April 1 – Oct 31), all times shift one hour later (e.g., dinner at 7:00 PM, show at 8:00 PM).
The evening features a four-course prix fixe dinner created by Chef Richard Padilla.
The show features an intimate, improvisational "tablao" style performance where dancers, singers, and guitarists communicate in real-time.
Tickets should be purchased in advance via the official booking site or HoldMyTicket.
