Festival Nacional de Cante Flamenco Lo Ferro


Festival Nacional de Cante Flamenco Lo Ferro

National Flamenco Festival, Lo Ferro

This flamenco festival dates back to 1979 and takes place in Lo Ferro, a small village which probably pre-dates Roldán itself but has remained in the shadow of the town throughout the recent period of growth.

The festival is held every year in the last week of August and has acquired a prestigious reputation and widespread popularity, bringing together on stage some of the best known names in the flamenco world.

The winner of the singing competition is awarded the “Melón de Oro” (Golden Melon), a trophy made of bronze which is donated by the Sebastián Escudero Sanmartín association. This flamenco society was founded in the same year as the inception of the festival.

This festival weaves in all of the elements of flamenco, with dance performances combined with singing and guitar competitions, although cante, vocals, are the most important element.

Flamenco warning!

This is pure flamenco, not the polka dot “Viva España”so often performed in tourist bars, which is often confused with flamenco by non-Spanish nationals, so be aware of that if booking. Pure flamenco is a profound art form, and tears the soul, although can be harsh on the ear for those unaccustomed to its rhythms and innuendo.
