Flamenco is for everyone.
The Atlanta Flamenco Festival continued with a special collaboration with artists Frank Maza and Javier Limón.
Jazz vocalist Susana Butler led a conversation with Frank Maza and Javier Limón before their concert at Eddie’s Attic in Decatur, Georgia. They talked about the connections between Latin Jazz and flamenco, as well as memories of Frank’s childhood in Limón’s flamenco recording studio in Madrid. Following the talk, Maza shared songs from his album titled Back Then.
We loved the performances by resident artists on August 8 & 9, 2026, during the Atlanta Flamenco Festival.
Poopak Mahdavi photographed the concert as we experienced the passion of flamenco during performances by artists from Spain who visited Atlanta to share their live music, dance, and deep emotional expression that make the art form so unique.

Thanks to everyone who gathered with us to celebrate the sixth-annual La Feria ATLANTA on April 12, 2026 at Garden Hills Community Center in Buckhead.
Flamenco lovers connected during an afternoon of dance, music, food, and more as we recognized La feria de abril of Seville, Spain, in Atlanta.
More than a performance, La Feria ATLANTA is an immersive event where guests participate in the traditions that are part of life in Andalucía, where flamenco originated and music, dance, and cuisine are part of the celebration of the season.
