We brought two salsa headliners: Tromboranga and RENE ALVAREZ' Tribute to Hector Lavoe. Also on the main stage: Peru's NovaLima - a fusion of Afro-Peruvian Music and global DJ culture. the wonderful - joropo group Zumbao, Mexico’s Mariachi el mexicano featuring Jari Castillo and rising Colombian electro-ambience star Montañera. The big top tent was transformed into CLUB VIVA ARENA, London's non-stop dance party, fuelled by the biggest Latin DJs spinning salsa, reggaeton, bachata, Latin house and baile funk, plus dance shows and lucha libre animations. In our URBAN MUSIC SHOWCASE, we gave the opportunity to new artists representing the London underground scene. Our NYC Salsa 'Immersive Experience' transported festival goers to New York's Golden Era and at CASA ANDINA we celebrated the dance, music and street food of Peru, Ecuador, Bolivia and Chile. Last but not least, at our biggest DANCE EXTRAVAGANZA PARADE ever - over 400 dancers of all ages kicked off the festival with a parade of London’s wonderful Latin American dance and drumming troupes.
