Salsology Club: Next event:  July 18th 2007...

(change from advertised 11th July date!)

Salsology is Manchester’s premier salsa club night and attracts dancers from across the UK and further afield.  The event has a touch of class – a superb venue, reminiscent of dancehall days, quality salsa classes at each event and dancefloor-friendly DJing. 

Salsology normally takes place every other month on the second Friday of the month, hosted by the Salsologists, Kate, Emma and Mushi at the Longfield Centre in Prestwich, Manchester. Come and take a look!

***NEWS*** Jimmy Bosch playing Salsology's 5th Birthday party!

>> The venue and directions
A great many of you will have been to the Longfield Suite and will know what a perfect venue for salsa it is. The wooden floor is the largest static floor we have seen at a salsa event in this country and can accommodate masses of dancers. There is plenty of free and secure parking at the venue; it's air-conditioned; the bar is very reasonable, and there’s seating encircling the dancefloor (if you want to sit down that is!). The venue serves snacks til late but, if you get the munchies on the way home, there's a 24hr Tesco opposite the venue (handy!)See you there!

Next Event: July 18th 2008

It's Salsology's 5th Birthday and to celebrate we're pushing out the boat and are honoured to have JIMMY BOSCH coming all the way from NYC especially for us, playing alongside la Clave (Grupo X).

It's been many a year since Jimmy played here and so this really is a great opportunity to hear one of the most explosive and versatile trombonists of his generation in action with one of the UK's most sought after bands, La Clave.
