You sit at a table while 30+ international performers deliver three hours of live music, dance, and acrobatics across a stage framed by LED screens and state-of-the-art lighting. A tasting menu of local ingredients arrives in sync with each act. The show runs Thursday to Sunday at 8pm in Sala Scala, a venue with over 35 years of history, and the whole experience — dinner and performance — is included in your ticket.
"We tell people it's not just a show — it's a reason to stay awake," one of the Sala Scala staff said when I asked what made NOMAD different. And after three hours inside that room, you understand what they mean. The stage fills with more than 30 international artists moving through live music, dance, and acrobatics that don't pause or apologize. You're sitting at a table with food in front of you, but the performance doesn't let you look away long enough to get bored with your plate.
The whole thing runs Thursday through Sunday at 8pm, and it's structured so the tasting menu arrives in rhythm with the show — each course timed to a different act, which sounds gimmicky until you realize it actually works. The kitchen sources everything locally (kilometer 0, they call it), so you're eating Gran Canaria while watching artists from three continents move across a stage wrapped in more than 20 meters of LED screens. The lighting and special effects aren't there to distract; they're part of the rhythm, the way the room itself becomes part of the performance.
Sala Scala has been running shows for over 35 years, and that history sits in the bones of the place — it's not a new venue trying to feel grand, it's a room that knows how to hold an audience. The staging transforms every night, which means the show doesn't feel like a loop you're watching; it feels like something alive. Wheelchair access is built in, and the room works for families with small children too, though the energy is intense enough that anyone over about eight will probably stay locked in.
You book a specific night — Thursday through Sunday — and arrive around 8pm. Dinner and the full three-hour performance are included. Public transport gets you there, or you can arrange your own way; the venue is accessible either way. If you've seen dinner shows before, this one operates at a different scale and pace.
Your evening includes entry to the show, a three-hour performance with more than 30 international artists performing live music, dance, and acrobatics, a tasting menu of local ingredients timed to accompany the performance, and access to the venue's full staging with LED screens and professional lighting.

Is this one for you?Book this if you want a full evening out that doesn't require you to choose between entertainment and dinner — the show and the meal are designed to work together, which is what turns three hours into something you don't want to end.
