Seville had a vibrant rock music scene in the 1970s and 1980s<ref>{{cite web |url=http://unesdoc.unesco.org/images/0015/001592/159293E.pdf |archive-url=https://ghostarchive.org/archive/20221009/http://unesdoc.unesco.org/images/0015/001592/159293E.pdf |archive-date=9 October 2022 |url-status=live |title=Seville: UNESCO City of Music |publisher=UNESCO |date=2007 |access-date=13 February 2018}}</ref> with bands like [[Triana (band)|Triana]], [[Alameda (band)|Alameda]] and [[Smash (British band)|Smash]], who fused Andalusia's traditional flamenco music with British-style progressive rock. The punk rock group [[Reincidentes]] and indie band [[Sr Chinarro]], as well as singer [[Kiko Veneno]], rose to prominence in the early 1990s. The city's music scene now features rap acts such as [[SFDK (band)|SFDK]], [[Mala Rodríguez]], [[Dareysteel]], [[Tote King]], [[Dogma Crew]], [[Bisley DeMarra]], [[:es:Haze (MC)|Haze]] and [[Jesuly]]. Seville's diverse music scene is reflected in the variety of its club-centred nightlife.

The city is also home to many theatres and performance spaces where classical music is performed, including [[Teatro Lope de Vega, Seville|Teatro Lope de Vega]], [[Teatro La Maestranza]], Teatro Central, the [[Real Alcazar Gardens]] and the Sala Joaquín Turina.

Despite its name, the [[sevillana]] dance, commonly presented as flamenco, is not thought to be of Sevillan origin. However, the folksongs called ''[[sevillanas]]'' are authentically Sevillan, as is the four-part dance performed with them.

On 19 November 2023, Seville hosted the [[24th Annual Latin Grammy Awards]] at the [[FIBES Conference and Exhibition Centre]], making Seville the first city outside of the [[United States]] to host the [[Latin Grammy Awards]].<ref>{{cite web |url=https://apnews.com/article/seville-spain-cf8138523aa769cc6bbde83acdd80ee4 |title=Latin Grammys to be held in Spain, leaving US for 1st time|work=Associated Press News |date=22 February 2023 |access-date=11 May 2023}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.grammy.com/news/2023-latin-grammys-sevilla-spain-24th-awards |title=2023 Latin Grammys To Host First-Ever International Telecast In Sevilla, Spain, On Nov. 16; Nominations To Be Announced Sept. 19 |publisher=Recording Academy Grammy Awards |last=Ochoa |first=John |date=4 May 2023 |access-date=11 May 2023}}</ref>

The [[Triana, Seville|Triana]] district in Seville is considered a birthplace of flamenco, where it found its beginning as an expression of the poor and marginalized. Seville's Romani population, known as Flamencos, were instrumental in the development of the art form. While it began as and remains a representation of Andalusian culture, it has also become a national heritage symbol of Spain.<ref>{{cite book|last1=Ruiz|first1=Ana|title=Vibrant Andalusia: The spice of life in southern Spain|date=2007|publisher=Algora Publ|location=New York|isbn=978-0-87586-539-3}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|last1=Brown|first1=Joshua|title=Flamenco capital: Tradition, revolution and renewal in Seville, Spain|url=https://escholarship.org/uc/item/3010g01h|publisher=UC Riverside|access-date=28 February 2018|year=2014}}</ref><ref>{{cite book|last1=Washabaugh|first1=William|title=Flamenco music and national identity in Spain|date=2012|publisher=Ashgate Publishing Ltd|location=Farnham|isbn=978-1-4094-3485-6}}</ref><ref>{{cite journal|last1=Manuel|first1=Peter|s2cid=191384305|title=Andalusian, Gypsy, and class identity in the contemporary flamenco complex|journal=Ethnomusicology|volume=33|issue=1|pages=47–65|doi=10.2307/852169|jstor=852169|year=1989|url=https://academicworks.cuny.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1535&context=jj_pubs }}</ref> There are more flamenco artists in Seville than anywhere else in the country, supporting an entire industry surrounding it and drawing in a significant amount of tourism for the city.<ref>{{cite journal|last1=Aoyama|first1=Yuko|s2cid=144812906|title=Artists, tourists, and the state: Cultural tourism and the flamenco industry in Andalusia, Spain|journal=International Journal of Urban and Regional Research|date=March 2009|volume=33|issue=1|pages=80–104|doi=10.1111/j.1468-2427.2009.00846.x}}</ref>
