Salsa at Sunset will see hundreds of people simultaneously dancing a specially choreographed routine at The Mailbox. Accompanied by a live band, this routine will provide the perfect start to a spectacular salsa party celebrating the festival. To take part participants must register and pay a £5 fee to learn the routine at one of our many sessions throughout May. This fee entitles you to an initial salsa workshop and a wristband that enables you to take part.

Whether you’re new to salsa, have never danced before, or go to regular classes, you can be part of this unique event. Singles, couples, groups, everyone’s welcome!

Learnt the routine but in need of a refresher? Here's footage of our team of teachers dancing the full basic salsa routine.
