Our mission
cubansalsa.nl exists for one reason: to offer a single, reliable, always-current place where the Dutch Cuban salsa scene comes together. Whether you're learning your first casino steps, you're a seasoned rueda dancer, or you're an organiser trying to get eyes on your party — you'll find what's happening, where, and when.
What you'll find here
Our calendar focuses exclusively on events where the Cuban style is front and centre: casino, rueda de casino, son cubano, timba, and the wider Cuban music and dance culture. That covers socials and parties, workshops at every level, multi-day festivals, and live concerts with Cuban artists. We cover the whole country — from Amsterdam, Rotterdam and The Hague to regions where the scene is less visible.
What you won't find here: LA-style, Cuban salsa-suelta confused with other styles, or generic "Latin nights" with no Cuban element. Strict curation means every event on the site is relevant if you love Cuban salsa.
How the calendar is built
The calendar is hand-curated. We follow organisers, dance schools, festival committees and social media closely, and verify events for relevance and accuracy before we publish them. Tips come in from the community too — dancers and organisers who submit an event via our contact form. Every listing gets an editorial pass on date, time, venue and style.
See something wrong, miss an event, or want to send in a correction? Let us know — the site gets stronger the more the scene helps out.
For organisers
Listing on cubansalsa.nl is free. Send us your event via the contact form or email info@cubansalsa.nl with the basics: name, date, time, venue, ticket link, and optionally a short description. The more complete the info, the faster we can publish it.
Behind the scenes
cubansalsa.nl is an independent project, run from the Netherlands, born out of love for Cuban music and dance culture. We are not affiliated with any particular school or organiser — our only loyalty is to the scene itself.
