Earlier this month, we had the privilege of attending the debut of a truly unique Latin party in the city: La Salsa at The Delancey on the Lower East Side. This party was not just another event but a vibrant celebration of the diverse Latin music genres and audiences, a true reflection of NYC's rich tapestry of Latin culture. 

Each of the three floors of The Delancey offered a distinct experience, catering to various party-goer styles. The underground realm of Bajo Mundo(Basement) was a pulsating hub of perreo and reggaeton, setting a unique tone. On (the main level), La Principal offered a high-energy atmosphere with a fusion of top 40 Latin hits and open-format tracks. At Superior (top level), tropical vibes and live performances transported guests to what feels like a trendy Miami club. It featured a full live band playing bachata and merengue.  

La Salsa invites everyone to immerse themselves in a one-of-a-kind nightlife experience. If you missed the first one, don't fear; they plan to have these parties once a month. The next one, fusing Puerto Rican Heritage and Pride Celebrations, will happen on June 6th!
