The free drink with the lower priced ticket is actually many drinks as you have unlimited access to at least a bottle of red and rose, plus the waiters brought sangria around. We ordered the tickets without the meal, and were glad we did, as it didn't look worthwhile. The costumed tableaus and interactions with the horses are not as exciting as either the mediaeval show or the dancers on their own, but they add colour and interest and are an impressive display of how well-trained the horses are. The middle of the show is the best, with an amazing guitar solo by Edu Vico my new guitar hero, and solos from the key dancers. Parts of the flamenco show were a little too 'Broadway' for my taste but that's understandable given the target audience, and even still those numbers were beautifully costumed and well choreographed. There were some beautiful Spanish and other Baroque horses ridden with skill in particular the Lippizan? ridden by the 'Barbarian' woman, and the actors did a great job of engaging the audience. However, the riding was more than competent, the knightly games extremely well done, and the stage combat excellent. We expected it to be cheesy and parts of it, like the Pegasus, played by a very patient long-suffering albino certainly were. When the show concludes, relax during the journey back to your specified Costa Brava location.Īs an instructor of Mounted Combat, and former flamenco student, I went into this show with really low expectations. The evening concludes with a feisty performance of Spanish flamenco in the castle’s opulent ballroom gaze at a talented troupe of dancers as they perform to the sound of Spanish guitars.

Be seduced by the sounds of tango and cha-cha, and refresh with drinks from a fully-stocked bar (own expense). When the exhilarating joust comes to a conclusion, a live band takes over to perform energetic Latino songs.
