ROOTS - THE WAY TO THE FESTIVAL (Salsa Workshops & Party & Show)

ROOTS – THE WAY TO THE FESTIVAL We are starting a new chapter. With ROOTS, we are building a continuous space for the salsa community to meet, exchange and grow together in the lead-up to the festival in 2027. Every two months, we invite national and international artists to Mainz to share their knowledge, movement and passion. For our first edition, we are excited to welcome Shon (Noviti). His style is shaped by traditional West African dance and a deep connection to music. In his workshops, he focuses on expression, musicality and individual development. Elements that directly impact your presence on the social dance floor. On Saturday night, DJ Chino (Karlsruhe) will take over with over 30 years of experience, creating an authentic and energetic salsa night.
