Bachata in New York
USA
20 events
16 venues
Bachata in New York gives you 18 weekly socials across 14 venues. Sunday is the busiest night with 6 parties, so the weekend carries the scene. Thursday adds 4 more, and Friday and Saturday each bring 3, which means you can dance six days out of seven. Most nights run in Manhattan dance studios, bars, and clubs, with a few rooftop and open-air spots in the warmer months. Many floors mix bachata with salsa, and salsa is even bigger here with 24 events a week. You will also find some zouk and kizomba on the same circuit. Sensual and Dominican styles both have a home in the city. Coming alone is normal, and locals rotate partners from the first song.
