The patio is open and the flamenco dancers are thrilling at the Alabardero!
Washington’s La Taberna del Alabardero adds to its many reasons to visit — in addition to the authentic Spanish meals it has been serving District residents and visitors since 1989 — spirited evenings of live flamenco dancing.
Talented flamenco dancers accompanied by musicians bring the passion and expressive movements of traditional flamenco on select Fridays and Saturdays from 8-10 p.m. (It is recommended to call ahead).
Performances will spill out onto the patio — weather permitting, but please note that the patio is now available for al fresco dining with the best of authentic Spanish and Mediterranean cuisines and an extensive wine list. Also for happy hour.
As for flamenco dancing — which often depicts passionate tales of love and loss — the dancing fits the restaurant’s authentic Spanish menu as easily as tapas. Requiring years of rigorous training to master, flamenco represents Spain’s cultural heritage, and at La Taberna del Alabardero, the talented dancers and musicians, along with the music, food, wine, and atmosphere, transport visitors to the heart of Spain with their vivid performances.
Best of all, there is no additional charge for this thrilling cultural experience.
The Halberdier Tavern is at 1776 I Street NW, between H and I. Call 202-429-2200 or email at this contact form. Make reservations online or order carry-out here.

Potomac Harmony is Back! Following a gap year of competing, then virtual rehearsals during the pandemic, followed by the well-earned retirement of our long-term director, a year of a director search, Potomac Harmony hit the regional contest stage in Concord, North Carolina in March for the first time since 2018! It was exhilarating, reaffirming, and rewarding!
The chorus hit all of its goals, the biggest of which was to have fun and sing our best on contest stage — we did both! Because we earned a score over 400 points, our new Director, Allison Lynskey, was awarded the Novice Director award, photo above. Additionally, one of our charter members, Jackie Bottash, was nominated for and honored with the Leadership Excellence award. It was a celebratory weekend!
What’s next? So much! We now look forward to upcoming performances, growing our membership, and expanding our musical product with new arrangements and an education component each week. It’s an exciting time to be part of this ever-growing ensemble!
