Salsa a Parkban

The hugely successful “Salsa in the Park” dance program will continue to entertain Latin music fans this summer and early fall on the Zene Háza Open-Air Stage. At these free events in 2026, the program will feature not only the Budapest-based Son Tres band but also Latin sets by Jose Dj Cuba and dance lessons by Bea. DJ sets and live band performances will alternate throughout the event. Son Tres has toured all over Europe; the band’s members include artists with Venezuelan, Cuban, and Colombian roots who bring passionate and vibrant Latin rhythms to the audience. The members of Son Tres guarantee a wild atmosphere at every party as they play bachata, salsa, cumbia, reggaeton, and other Latin styles—with a special focus on salsa this time!
