Bachata in Gothenburg gives you 3 weekly socials. All three run at the weekend, so plan for Saturday or Sunday. Sunday is the busiest with 2 events, and Saturday adds one more. This is a compact scene, easy to follow when you only have a few nights to choose from. The socials sit in dance studios and by the harbor front, so expect a mix of school floors and open social nights. Salsa and kizomba share the same weekend calendar, with 3 events each, and many dancers move between all three styles. Coming alone works fine; the crowd is small enough that people rotate partners quickly. Check the day-by-day schedule below for start times and venue details.
