La promoción de festivales de flamenco en municipios andaluces.
The Ministry of Culture and Sports, through the Andalusian Agency of Cultural Institutions, has published in the Official Gazette of the Andalusian Government (BOJA number 67 of April 8, 2025) the call for proposals for programming festivals and events of special cultural interest in flamenco in Andalusia. This is a new collaboration line with municipalities with less than 100,000 inhabitants that are not provincial capitals.
This call promotes the programming of flamenco in the cultural events that traditionally fill the agendas of Andalusian municipalities. The aim is to collaborate in the programming of these cultural events, which will be carried out jointly between the Andalusian Institute of Flamenco and the selected local entity.
Among the requirements included in the call is the existence of a prominent programming with flamenco as the protagonist. In addition, the municipality must have specialized managers in the field who are directly linked to the event. Also, the spaces where the activity takes place must be publicly owned, either managed by the municipality itself or through a non-profit instrumental entity.
Applications can be submitted until May 12 through the General Electronic Submission Service of the Andalusian Government and the models are published on the website of the Andalusian Institute of Flamenco and the Andalusian Agency of Cultural Institutions. Entities must attach a justificatory report to their proposals detailing the event programming, as well as the dates and location of the event.
The project must also include a definition of the target audience and be complemented with the communication plan that will be implemented for its proper promotion. Additionally, it must be accompanied by the curriculum vitae of the activity manager and an economic budget that, in turn, will include an economic balance of the activity.
The evaluation of the applications will be carried out by an assessment committee, which will apply the following criteria: the programming proposal and relevance of the festival, its contribution to the creation of new spaces and environments for flamenco exhibition, the financing and economic sustainability of the event, and the consideration that the project has for gender equality.
The selected proposals will finalize their programming with the Andalusian Institute of Flamenco, which will contribute financially through artistic contracting, investing between 2,500 and 6,000 euros in each event.
