The first one got hot, the floor got heavy and the rhythm took over. So we’re back October 10th from 22:00-2:00 at @worm.rotterdam
🔸
No dress code, no dance police, no borders and no rules about who belongs on the floor. Just a deep love for SALSA — the percussion, the clave, the sweat, the bodies moving together and that feeling when the whole room catches the same rhythm.
🔸
The crew for this edition is pure fire

Presenting an epic Salsa Club Night at @worm.rotterdam on June 5th from 22:00-2:00
⭐️
Salsa was never meant to fit in a box. Born from a mix of cultures, rhythms, and stories, it’s music that lives in movement—and belongs to everyone. But somehow, even on the dance floor, limits still exist.
⭐️
Salsa para Todxs is about breaking those limits. This is an underground space where the rules fade out and the music takes over. A night where the LGBTQ+ community stands at the center—but where everyone is welcome: all races, all identities, all beliefs, all ways of moving. No expectations, no roles to follow—just respect, openness, and the freedom to dance.
⭐️
On deck: Veinte Uñas, Anacaona, and El Javier_B—each bringing their own flavor to the floor. Live percussion by Krmen, keeping the rhythm raw, alive, and impossible to ignore. Different backgrounds, different energies—one shared language.
