Salsa in Brazil

Discover Salsa dancing events across 5 cities in Brazil

Salsa in Brazil is a small, spread-out scene of 8 weekly events across 5 cities. Florianópolis carries the most, with smaller groups of socials in Brasília, Belo Horizonte and São Paulo. Thursday is the strongest night, and you can find a social from Thursday through Sunday. Brazil leans far more toward zouk and bachata, so salsa nights are fewer and often share the floor with other Latin styles. Turning up alone is normal, and dancers are used to visitors.
