Exhibition La noche azul at the Real Fábrica de Artillería
This outstanding temporary exhibition is part of the parallel activities of the XXIV Bienal de Flamenco and delves into the fascinating history of the Ópera Flamenca between the 1920s and 1950s. Through 328 original pieces that include historical posters, shellac records, gramophones, and unpublished documentation, the visitor understands the massive expansion of this art into theaters, bullrings, and the recording industry.

The display is located in the emblematic industrial space of the Nave de Grabados de la Real Fábrica de Artillería, offering an unsurpassed architectural container for a top-tier historical immersion.
