🔥🪗 🪇CUMBIA VS SALSA 🪊🪘✨ – Friday 6th November at @TheJagoDalston

A heavyweight duel on the dancefloor with a line-up full of flavour! Live music, vinyl sets and a Mexican Sonidero performance.

After last edition’s full house, one of our most celebrated nights returns!

A journey through the rhythms that travelled from the Colombian Caribbean to Mexico, from Peru to Japan, and from Cuba to Puerto Rico and New York, shaping generations of dancers across the Americas, The Caribbean and the whole world.

This time, with international guests and a seriously spicy line-up! Our friends from @kumbiavik Collective, a cumbia collective from Mexican cumbierxs based in Iceland, will be joining us for the night, alongside a special performance from our Mexican carnal Sonido Fin, representing the spirit of Mexico City’s Sonidero culture.
