Over the 5 day festival,there will be workshops led by renowned instructors, nightly dance performances showcasing local and international talent, and of course awesome parties.
If you can only attend one event, don’t miss the Saturday night gala. This special night is unique: until 4:00am, there will different music rooms available where you will be able to dance according to your mood: Salsa, Bachata, Kizomba, and Hustle Swing.
Don’t worry, if you’re new to this variety of dance style and the only Latin artist who comes to mind is Marc Anthony, you are welcome to join the party as well. Don’t be intimidated by the international selection of dancers who will lead the workshops and grace the stage. The Montreal salsa scene is very welcoming and takes advantage of these yearly events to allow the curious crowd to experience the warmth of this friendly group.

While you might go in with a limited knowledge about salsa, you will leave blown away by the talent you will witness and surely enthused by the wonderful encounters you will make.

You can consult the official schedule and line up of instructors by visiting the Montreal Salsa Convention website.
