Immerse yourself in the exciting rhythms of salsa, bachata, reggaeton, and samba over three days of DJs, performances and fun dance classes.

Savour authentic cuisine from an array of food trucks serving Argentinian empanadas, Brazilian BBQs, Mexican nachos, Chilean ceviches, and much more. Don’t miss this exciting cultural extravaganza for the whole family in the heart of Auckland city, and best of all it's free to attend.

With a line-up of band music including Mariachi New Zealand, Groupo Sa-Son, Samba Maracana, Frente Sudaka (an 11-piece band from Tauranga), you won’t want to miss this Latin party extravaganza!
