About this event
Boston Salsa Festival (BSF) 2025 transforms the Westin Waltham Boston into a four-day Latin-dance playground from Thursday, August 14 through Sunday, August 17. It kicks off with a relaxed pre-party on Thursday night, then rolls into three action-packed days of workshops, evening stage shows, and marathon socials that keep both salsa and bachata rooms moving until 3 AM.
More than thirty daytime classes—ranging from beginner-friendly fundamentals to advanced footwork drills—are taught by world-class artists such as Gio & Gaby, Pipe & Kathe, and Boston favorites Salsa y Control. Nightly showcases spotlight international performance teams alongside live music, while a polished roster of DJs (including DJ Al Rivera, DJ Lui-G, and DJ Rob Suave) spins the hottest tracks for social dancers.
The Westin’s spacious ballroom, free parking, on-site bar, and vendor market make it easy to spend the whole weekend under one roof. Attendees can register on site each morning, take advantage of the hotel’s indoor pool between workshops, or explore Boston attractions just 15 miles away.
Whether polishing technique, hunting for social-dance conexión, or simply savoring the energy of hundreds of dancers, BSF delivers an inspiring New England salsa experience. Plan ahead—the room block and full-event passes sell out every year!
Important: Event times are subject to change. Always double check with the event organizer before making plans.
