Cuban salsa in Scheveningen — what you need to know

Scheveningen is not a regular Cuban dance destination, but the summer editions of La Pachanga at De Pier are worth the trip. La Pachanga runs themed editions — Tropical, Jet Set, Criminal — with Cuban salsa and bachata split across two rooms on the pier itself, overlooking the sea. DJs like Sir Benjamin, DJ Peluche and DJ Kima rotate between Cuban Salsa, Salsa LA and Bachata, so the night has different moods. Tickets vary between €10 (early bird) and €25 (door), and the events are popular, so booking ahead is wise. Outside La Pachanga there is little fixed Cuban offering in Scheveningen — for classes or weekly socials you head to neighbouring The Hague (Cubania) or Atrium Church.
