Join us in celebration of Cuban music and dance in the US! We've grown to become the largest Cuban music and dance festival in the US. We've grown from 3 nights, 2 days, 3 classes at a time, 2 live bands, and 1 Hotel to 4 nights of non-stop dance and partying, 3 days of dance Workshops, 6 classes each hour to choose from, 4 Live Bands and 2 Hotels to house all the excitement. Each and every year our international guests and performers grows!! We hope this event supports and contributes to the ongoing growth of the Cuban salsa community in the United States and throughout the World. Thank you for your ongoing support of this event, building your Cuban salsa dance communities in your home towns, and being part of the ever changing and growing landscape of the salsa rueda and casino world.
As always, each year the festival showcases new groups. The festival strives to be a welcoming, non-competitive environment for groups to showcase their latest works with others that share the love of Cuban music and dance. We have never turned away any group that wishes to participate. Our deadline for confirming 2014 performers is Dec. 15th, so please contact Nick and Serena if you are interested at salsavaletodo@gmail.com
As always, the festival is the third weekend in February and this year we are lucky to have President's Day on Monday, February 17th. So book your trip now and enjoy a long weekend in San Francisco at the festival!!!
