About this Event
Spice up your night at Salsa & Salsa, an immersive evening where bold flavors, Latin rhythm, and curated shopping collide.
This is not just a class.
It’s a full cultural experience.
Begin the night with a handcrafted welcome cocktail as you explore our Vendor Village, featuring hand-selected Latin-inspired brands, makers, and artisans. From jewelry and fashion to specialty goods and handcrafted pieces, shopping will be open all night so you can sip, mingle, and discover at your own pace.
Then, step into our interactive culinary experience. Guided by our Executive Culinary Chef you’ll learn how to craft vibrant, fresh salsas from scratch — tasting, mixing, and building bold flavor profiles in a lively, social atmosphere.
As the energy builds, we transition to the dance floor. Dasha Reut will guide you through a fun and beginner-friendly salsa lesson designed to make everyone feel confident and connected. No experience required. Singles and couples welcome.

Salsa Making Class
Host: Critic's Choice Catering
Info: Step into our interactive salsa-making experience, where fresh ingredients and bold flavors come to life. Guided by our chef, you’ll learn the foundations of crafting vibrant, authentic salsa — balancing heat, acidity, texture, and depth.
From fire-roasted tomatoes to bright citrus and seasonal herbs, you’ll chop, taste, mix, and build your own flavor profile while discovering what makes a truly unforgettable salsa. This is hands-on, social, and designed to spark conversation as much as it sparks flavor.
Come ready to taste. Adjust. Experiment. And create something uniquely yours.

Beginner Salsa Lesson
Host: Dasha Reut
Info: After we’ve turned up the heat in the kitchen, we take it to the dance floor.
Our 45-minute beginner-friendly salsa lesson is designed for all experience levels — whether you’ve never danced before or just want to sharpen your basics. A professional instructor will guide you step-by-step through foundational footwork, rhythm timing, and simple partner combinations in a fun, supportive atmosphere.
We begin with solo movement to help everyone feel confident with the beat, then transition into easy partner work (no partner required — we rotate unless you prefer to stay together). Expect spins, laughter, and lots of encouragement.
By the end of the session, you’ll know enough to confidently move into our open dance party — where the lights dim, the music builds, and the floor comes alive.
No pressure. Just rhythm, connection, and a little spice.
🕑: 09:00 PM - 10:30 PM

Enjoy a curated dining experience featuring bold Latin-inspired flavors while the dance floor opens for continued movement and connection. The music builds, the lights soften, and the energy shifts into celebration mode.
Our Vendor Village remains open all night, inviting you to shop, sip, and discover at your own pace between dances. Whether you’re savoring another bite, perfecting your new moves, or finding a handcrafted treasure to take home, this final chapter is designed for lingering.
