Madrid: WAH Show – Music, Dining & Party Experience delivers a lively, multi-sensory night that blends top-tier entertainment with a global culinary journey. For just around four hours, you’re transported to a dystopian world where music is forbidden—until WAH becomes the last sanctuary for sonic freedom. Imagine a show that combines Broadway flair, Vegas-style staging, and international performers from the Oscars, Eurovision, West End, and Broadway. The experience starts with a visit to the WAH Food Hall, where you can indulge at 14 international food stations, and ends with an energetic afterparty at WAH Club.
What truly makes this experience shine are two specific features. Firstly, the spectacular show, blending genres like opera, flamenco, gospel, electro, and rock, and performed by world-class artists, ensures you’ll find excitement and surprise at every turn. Secondly, the diverse gastronomic stations—ranging from Iberian cold cuts to vegan delights—add a culinary dimension that elevates the evening from mere entertainment to a full-fledged feast.
A possible consideration is the cost of food and drinks, which are not included in the ticket price. This means you’ll want to budget extra for your meal and beverages. Also, children under 18 are not permitted to stay for the aftershow, so families should plan accordingly.
This tour is perfect for adventurous travelers who love music, good food, and vibrant nightlife, and who don’t mind paying a bit extra for a high-energy, immersive experience. If you’re seeking an authentic taste of Madrid’s modern, eclectic scene, the WAH Show offers a memorable night out.

A Detailed Look at the WAH Show Experience in Madrid
The WAH Madrid experience is a carefully curated blend of spectacle, culinary delights, and nightlife, designed to appeal to travelers craving something different from the usual sightseeing tour. Starting at the WAH Food Hall, you’re greeted with a lively, modern space where you can choose from 14 different international food stations. We loved the variety—there’s something for all, from Iberian cold cuts to vegan dishes, allowing you to customize your pre-show meal or snack. It’s a fantastic way to begin, especially if you appreciate good food as an integral part of an evening out.
Once you’ve filled your plate, the real magic begins with the performance itself. The show is nothing short of impressive, featuring performers from internationally renowned stages, including the Oscars, Eurovision, West End, and Broadway. The performers’ versatility is striking—they switch seamlessly between opera, flamenco, gospel, electro, and rock, creating a musical journey that’s both emotionally powerful and visually captivating.
The staging is equally spectacular, with elaborate sets and lighting that elevate the show beyond a typical concert. This fusion of genres and styles might seem ambitious, but it works because of the top-quality talent and production values. From the dramatic opera vocals to the lively flamenco dancers and electrifying electro beats, there’s a moment for every music lover.
A unique aspect of this experience is its thematic setting—a dystopian world where music is suppressed, and WAH becomes the last bastion of musical freedom. This adds a layer of narrative that makes the show more engaging and memorable. We found it to be a clever backdrop that makes every note and movement feel like a part of a larger rebellion.
The culinary portion then transitions into a full-blown feast, and while the ticket does not include food or drinks, the variety and quality of the stations justify the extra spend. The food stations are well-curated, offering everything from traditional Spanish fare to international flavors, including vegan and vegetarian options. This diverse menu is a highlight, especially for those who enjoy exploring different cuisines in one evening.
Following the show, the party continues at the exclusive WAH Club, where you can dance and socialize in a lively, energetic atmosphere. It’s a perfect way to extend the night and soak in Madrid’s vibrant nightlife, especially if you love dancing to live DJ sets and good company.
The entire experience lasts around four hours, which makes it a substantial but not overwhelming night out. The flexibility of booking with a ‘reserve now, pay later’ policy and the ability to cancel up to 24 hours ahead offers peace of mind for travelers with uncertain plans.
One aspect worth noting is that children under 18 are not allowed to stay for the aftershow, which runs from 11:15 pm to 1:00 am. Families with younger travelers should plan to leave after the main performance, as the afterparty is exclusively for adults.
