Salsa Fest Weekend

Salsa Fest Weekend returns for its 4th annual edition in Miami from October 2–5, 2025, centered at the InterContinental Miami in the heart of downtown. Dancers can expect a full festival experience with daytime workshops, pool parties, nightly social dancing, showcases, and live concerts—all produced by Salsa Lovers. A discounted host-hotel rate makes it easy to stay on-site and keep the vibes going between sessions.

Friday features afternoon workshops, a welcome pool party, and an evening program with showcases and social dancing that runs late. Saturday brings a full slate of classes, the main pool party, another showcase-and-social night, and a midnight concert; Sunday wraps with a relaxed farewell breakfast. (Schedule subject to change.)
