About this event

Inessence presents Bachata After Dark, a large-scale Latin dance mega social at Space 550 in San Francisco.

The event features multiple rooms of dancing, including a main bachata room and a dedicated salsa room, plus a third room to be announced. Entry includes two beginner-friendly classes before the party, followed by social dancing late into the night.

The theme is Red and Black Silk, with a dark and leather-inspired vibe for the evening. A DJ Battle takes place at 11:00 PM with a $350 cash prize, alongside guest DJs and an out-of-town lineup. The salsa room is hosted by GYA Mini Fiesta and features DJ Negro Salsoso (NYC) and DJ Alvinthethird (Chicago).
