'Ruta del duende' in Jerez has been announced for next March 16, 2024
Among its many activities, Espacio Expoflamenco has organised a new cultural route to get to know the city where it is based. It is a guided walk between the flamenco districts of Santiago and San Miguel through the heart of old Xerez. Places are limited, so don't miss out on yours.
The name of the route responds to the need to bring together all the elements that make up the route itself. Because flamenco will be very present but also, as we pass by, we will find the unique monument, the legend or the winery. There will be no shortage of local wines along the way and on the way back, in harmony with the surroundings. The spirit of Jerez and sherry, in short.

The route is a journey through the streets, monuments, stories and legends of flamenco in our city, where participants can learn more about this intangible heritage of the city. Everything starts in the Santiago neighbourhood, participants watch the evening fall while they discover the history of the cobbled streets, the most traditional houses, or some of the emblematic places of Jerez such as the church of Santiago, the old market square, or the nooks and crannies of the San Miguel neighbourhood.
Added to all this are the wines from the Marco region, which become the protagonists of the route. Visitors can enjoy a glass of wine in a traditional place in the city, while learning about the history of the city and its most genuine artistic expression, flamenco, thanks to the studious and meticulous work of Castaño.
