As a prelude to the Suma Flamenca Festival, the biggest flamenco event in Madrid, the Sala Verde (Green Hall) at Teatros del Canal will host the sixth edition of Young Suma Flamenca from 24 to 27 September 2026. It is a consolidated event within the Festival that brings together the best young performers of flamenco song, dance and guitar in concert, such as Jesús de la Estrella from Toledo, Yaiza Trigo and Álvaro Moreno from Seville, Yolanda Mozos and Niño Ruven from Cordoba, Aitana Rousseau from Almeria, Ana Almagro from Malaga, Esmeralda Rancapino and Luis Montoya “Chanquita” from Cadiz and Laura Reyes, Eleazar Cerreduela and Rober el Moreno from Madrid.
The initiative is aimed at artists under the age of 30, born after 31 December 1995, and it is supported by the Community of Madrid, which provides a first-class technical and production team to ensure the best sound and lighting in each gala. Therefore, flamenco is shown in its most authentic and professional form, reflecting the institutional commitment to the genre’s generational succession.
