In the second half of the 19th societies called Pe\u00f1as Flamencas started to appear in the Andalusian community. To the naked eye, these places look like a small bars or taverns full of local people. Look a little closer and spot how they have been decorated. Spot the guitar hung on the wall and\/or the political propaganda. This is no ordinary bar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Las Pe\u00f1as Flamencas play an important role in the survival of flamenco. They organize diverse events: concerts, recitals, open mic nights etc. Aside from supporting flamenco culture, these spaces offer an opportunity for young people to learn their craft and practice playing in front of an audience. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The first place considered a Pe\u00f1a was the Juan Brava Pe\u00f1a in Granada that opened in 1948 and was a space where the locals would come to debate important social issues. The introduction of music was not until later. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are four main types of Pe\u00f1a Flamenca. The first are the Pe\u00f1as that were creating to pay homage to flamenco as a cultural symbol. The second type of society considered a Pe\u00f1a is that created by the working class citizens of a town or village and is used not only to celebrate music, but also as a chance to gather together to discuss how to make a positive impact on the local community. The third are the Pe\u00f1as comprised of the upper middle-class citizens of larger towns and are purely political. The fourth are the Pe\u00f1a Flamencas created in Andalusian villages. These societies are a melting pot of music, politics and social change. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some pe\u00f1as are so small there is standing room only. Others are large halls with tables and wooden chairs. They are usually decorated with music memorabilia as well as flamenco trophies one by those who frequent the society. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, can anyone become a member of a Pe\u00f1a nowadays? That depends on the Pe\u00f1a. From our personal experience at the Guaro Pe\u00f1a, anyone can join although you can<\/em> eat and drink there without being a member. Members get drink and food discounts for dinner events held there as well as discounts on monthly trips organized by the society. The price of membership is only 5\u20ac\/month per couple. The prices and benefits will differ from Pe\u00f1a to Pe\u00f1a. Joining a Pe\u00f1a is not only a great way to integrate, improve your language skills and listen to live music, but is also a fantastic way to support local traditions and keep them alive for generations to come. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
