A free weekly dance party – complete with dance instructors –held every Thursday on Fountain Square, Salsa on the Square runs now through Sept. 29.
Salsa on the Square began in 2008, inspired by the energetic crowd and incredible musicians in the band Tropicoso. Since then, dozens of bands, from specializing in salsa, merengue, cumbia, and Latin jazz, have performed on the Fountain Square stage.
Adding to the fun this season, Mazunte will be serving tacos, tostados, and guacamole on the Square.
