Which Show to See?
Many guests ask which is "The Best" show to see, here's a close look at each Espetáculo to help you decide. As a general guidance - if you love the arts and culture, choose Thursday or Friday which begin with the Fire, Fado and Flamenco Fantasia, if you are a rider, or want the adrenaline factor, choose Saturday. Sunday has all the stars but slightly shorter without the Fantasia or Speed rounds but lots of extras before and after the show and ideal for anyone with a long journey home.
If you have any questions, please use the live chat, email or call 07398 551610 - usually all 9am-9pm, it's personalised customer service the Iberian way!
ALL seats are excellent! Each tiered grandstand is only 60m long and 13 rows high - it's an out of this world experience but you are up close with the horses. Intimate and exclusive - row A is just 3m from the arena.
