Cafe Sevilla is one of the best places to dance salsa here in San Diego.  Over the years the venue has done a great job of providing a quality nightclub experience to those looking for salsa in the Gaslamp Quarter.  

Well, our favorite venue is celebrating 22 years of great memories on June 26th and they’ve decided to go all out for the occasion!

Cafe Sevilla, both the nightclub and restaurant, are hosting a special evening to commemorate their 22 years of bringing quality entertainment to San Diego.  The event will feature a boat gala on a Lord Hornblower Yacht with capacity for up to 500 people.  Cafe Sevilla will be hosting different areas of music on the yacht including a special area for those who want to dance to salsa and other Latin dances.  

The San Diego Salsa and Latin Dancing Meetup Group will be in attendance at this event and we’ve set up a special RSVP page for those interested in coming with the group.  Here is the link where you can find out more information about the boat gala:

We’ll see you all on June 26th at the Sevilla on the Bay boat party!

I want to remind all of you in San Diego about a great monthly event.  Held on the first Wednesday of each month (Our group is featured in Cafe Sevilla’s official flyer above), Meet.com night at Cafe Sevilla has been a great way to meet other local dancers before the dancing begins.  The photo here is from last month’s Meetup.com night at Cafe Sevilla.  

Cafe Sevilla has been very gracious to our group, including reserving a special VIP section for our members and offering reduced cover for Meetup.com members (check out the RSVP page here to find out more information about this).  If you do come I suggest coming at 9pm sharp since most dancers go out to take advantage of the dancing after 10pm.  From 9pm to 10pm or so you’ll have an opportunity to meet other local salsa dancers and talk before the dancing begins.  Also, don’t forget that I’m still giving away 3 Putumayo CD’s to the first three people that show up at 9pm.

Overall, Meet.com night at Cafe Sevilla is a great way to break up the work week and make some great new connections with the San Diego salsa community.  

Come check it out!

Hope you are all doing well.  Not sure what everyone has planned for Halloween this year but if your plans are anything like mine they will include some salsa dancing.  This year we are especially fortunate since the holiday falls on a Friday night.

There are a number of events going on around town that will have salsa dancing and I wanted to highlight two of the larger events.

Cafe Sevilla is hosting a special Halloween night during its regular Thursday night salsa.  There will be a costume contest with cash prizes for numerous categories.  I’ve been to Cafe Sevilla for Halloween celebrations in the past and it has always been fun to see how people get decked out in costume.  To find out more information and to RSVP for the event please visit the San Diego Salsa and Latin Dancing Meetup Group event page.

Friday night Rumba Entertainment is hosting Halloween night salsa dancing at the La Jolla Marriott that is sure to bring out lots of salsa dancers.  They are also having a cash prize giveaway for best costumes in a number of categories.  For more information and to RSVP for this event I’ve also posted a page at the San Diego Salsa and Latin Dancing Meetup Group. 

Come check out both events and don’t forget to wear a costume!!!
