Bachata in Basel

Bachata in Basel runs 4 weekly socials across 3 venues. Wednesday is the busiest night with 2 parties, and Thursday and Friday each add one more. That gives you three nights of dancing during the week. The events happen in dance schools and social bars near the city center. Bachata leads the local scene here, ahead of salsa (3 events), with a few kizomba (2) and zouk (1) nights mixed in. Many venues run bachata and salsa on the same evening, so you can switch styles in one night. Coming alone is normal, and dancers rotate partners on the floor. Check each night on the schedule below to plan your week.
