About SalsaRica

SalsaRica runs its parties out of the Bananenreiferei in Zürich‑West, so the night feels part dance school, part club. Depending on the event you'll be moving between multiple dance floors (some nights advertise up to four), with a 400m² terrace for breaks and separate studios upstairs used for workshops. Monday music includes Salsa, Bachata, Cha-cha-cha and Son. Friday adds separate Bachata and Kizomba floors later in the evening; check the dated programme for their opening times.

If you turn up on a Monday expect a lounge format (doors from 19:30); Fridays are a later club night. The venue lists party hours (Mon 19:30-01:00, Fri 21:00-03:00) and the SalsaPractica team offers open practice with teachers available for questions in the early slot (Mon 19:30-20:30, Fri 21:00-22:00), so solo dancers and course students can slot in. The SalsaPractica is part of the party ticket and explicitly not a course.
