21 years ago we launched a project - Free dance workshops "Salsa Latina Istriana" in order to promote salsa and other Caribbean dances. Through all of 20 years the event has been revived from the 100 dancers up to 1500 international dancers nowadays. Of course, the project would not be revived if there was no support from sponsors and many instructors who helped in the realization of the event with their enthusiasm and great love for dance. So get ready for 3 nights of 4 floor parties, one-floor pre-party + afterparty and 2 beach parties with our great Djs as well as a live concert and 3 masterclasses with top teachers. Indulge in the rhythms of Bachata, Bachata Sensual, Salsa, Kizomba & Semba in great energy, lots of smiles and hot Mediterranean summer in Croatia.
