This year the International Festival will be flamenco held at various locations within the city, between the 25.ten February and the March, 12.ten. On the opening night of the festival starts the theater Villamarta with a sophisticated, combative performance by Antonio el pipa. “He is the dance of the Gypsies, the Danzacali danzar de los gitanos” list.
