About the Society

Welcome to Atlantic Flamenco, where the art of flamenco meets the heart of Atlantic Canada. As the Atlantic Flamenco Productions Society, founded in 2007, and also known as “Maria Osende Flamenco Co.” we’re all about spreading the love for dance, flamenco, and Spanish culture
across the Atlantic region.

 

Previous activities include the “Flamenco Nights series”, The Atlantic Flamenco Festival (an annual event that ran for over a decade), The Fuse Festival (collaboration with municipality) and Seville’s April Fair in Halifax (2023 & 2024).

We also recently provided a Flamenco Guitar Mentorship Program, the first of its kind in Canada!  Upcoming events include our annual World Flamenco Day celebration and performances by Maria Osende Flamenco Co.  Find out More About Atlantic Flamenco Here
