About the Festival
As one of the few celebrated festivals devoted to flamenco art outside of Spain, the Vancouver International Flamenco Festival nurtures flamenco’s hybridized roots in Sephardic, Persian, Gypsy and Indian cultures.
Since its beginnings, the festival has remained at the core of the city’s flourishing flamenco scene, encouraging innovation and experimentation, while remaining deeply rooted in the traditions of the beloved aesthetic.
Running for over 30 years, the festival is produced by Flamenco Rosario. Flamenco Rosario’s legacy inspires passion and profoundly appreciates traditional, contemporary and cutting-edge flamenco as a global movement.
Through world-class performances, workshops, and demonstrations the festival offer aficionados, novices, and families of all ages exciting opportunities to discover the vibrant and poetic art form, from its highly rhythmic dance and percussive palmas (hand clapping) to its fervid vocals and intricate guitar!
We strive to reflect flamenco’s diverse sociocultural identity through work narratives underlining the form’s universal message of humanistic tolerance.
