2020-02-27: Salsa Bailando Thursdays at Drift Southsea – Carnival Party!

The Drift Bar in Southsea is the venue for Bailando every Thursday run by DALE Afro Latin Entertainment from 10pm to 1am. When I arrive around 10pm for the salsa dancing upstairs there are usually plenty of people who attended the earlier bachata lessons from 8:30 to 10pm staying on for half an hour or so to practice to bachata music. Around 10:30pm salsa is added to the mix and people start coming up from downstairs particularly when it gets crowded. Many members of Kasia Rajka‘s salsa family (Salsa Solent Portsmouth) are usually there and members of The UoP Cuban Salsa Society ‘Sonrisas Salseros’ usually arrive around 11pm. DJ Hazel provides the music upstairs while DJunior takes care of downstairs.

Venue: Drift Bar at 78 Palmerston Road, Southsea, PO5 3PT

Parking: There’s plenty of parking round the back in Ashby Place Car Park.

Entrance: £2 after 10pm

More details may be seen on the facebook page: Dale Afro Latin Entertainment.

Dilshad & Asia run salsa & bachata lessons followed by social dancing at Drift every Monday from 8pm to midnight.

Philip Wake There was an exciting carnival atmosphere tonight and I had lots of fun dancing bachata with many charming ladies until the salsa tracks started playing. Then I had some excellent salsa dances with my favourites salseras including Marzena, Agnieszka, Massiel & Michelle. Around midnight Madalina suddenly appeared looking like a carnival queen and gave me my last dance of the night – a beautiful bachata! ❤️
