The routes
The routes
Nomad plays the night as a set of arrivals: three routes into the island's own crossing point, carried on stage by the cast and onto the table by the kitchen, course by course.
- Europe
An opening from the Old World
The tasting menu's first course is a handmade Italian tortello, served as the cast opens the show.
- Africa
A skewer and a rhythm
A spiced chicken skewer with couscous lands with the production's African-rooted percussion and choreography.
- America
A sweet landing
Mango and white chocolate close the menu as the performance moves into its Latin American register.
- The Island
Where the three meet
The island is where the three routes meet: Nomad is built on Gran Canaria's place between Europe, Africa and the Americas, and the whole night comes back to it.
Doors open an hour before the 8:00pm start, and the venue suggests arriving by 7:30pm at the latest. Seats within each zone go in order of purchase, so booking early is what brings you nearer the front.
Dinner and the menu
Dinner and the menu
The tasting menu is built to land in step with the stage, dish by dish, rather than served all at once and eaten through the show.
One kitchen, four dinner menus
Dinner tickets come with the standard NOMAD tasting menu or a vegan, gluten-free or children's menu for ages 2 to 11. Sala Scala also runs a Sensations menu of appetiser-style dishes for show tickets sold without a set menu.
Timed to the stage
Each course is built to arrive at a specific point in the show rather than all together — the kitchen works to the same running order as the cast does.
General, Premium or VIP
Three seating zones, one menu
| Option | What's included | Who it suits |
|---|---|---|
| General | A seat in the main section, with the tasting menu (or vegan, gluten-free or children's alternative) served through the show. | A first visit, or a group happy with the standard view of the stage. |
| Premium | A seat in a section closer to the stage, with the same menu choices as General. | Anyone who wants to sit nearer the acrobatics and the LED screen. |
| VIP | The seating zone closest to the stage, with the same menu choices as the other tiers. | A birthday, anniversary or other night where the view matters most. |

Getting there, in the south
Getting there, in the south
Playa de San Agustín
Sala Scala sits at Las Retamas 3 in Playa de San Agustín, on Gran Canaria's southern resort coast — close enough to Maspalomas and Playa del Inglés that most visitors staying along that stretch can reach it without a long transfer.
No on-site parking
There's no private car park at the venue, though public parking is nearby. On Thursdays, Sala Scala runs a transfer from resorts in the south of the island; other nights, plan a taxi or your own car.
Doors is your arrival time
Doors open an hour before the 8:00pm start; aim to be there by 7:30pm. Seats are allocated within your ticket's zone in order of purchase, so an early booking matters more than an early arrival.
