Salsa dancing in Stuttgart

Stuttgart has a large salsa scene and offers possibilities for dancing throughout the week. Many locations have opened and closed again during the years, several try to do one salsa evening per night - generally these places aren't only into salsa but also other dances and will play other kinds of music on the rest of the week.
The most beautiful und one of the largest locations is the Buddha Lounge, formerly Schützenhaus which offers salsa every Sunday night and sometimes on Fridays on special "Latin Nights".
Another place with a long tradition since 1989 is El Pasito which offers Salsa twice a week as well as Salsa, Tango, Flamenco and Spanish lessons, it is managed by a Peruvian guy, Francisco who also has other offers like Spanish courses and lessons about South American Culture.
Zapata is an old factory buildung transformed in a Club. In former times the salsa nights were held on the largest floor - these were the times all Salsa lovers still remember as the "Good Times". Nowadays they are reduced to one of the smaller floors on Saturday night.
There is 7 Grad in Theodor-Heuss-Straße every Thursday night.
Litfaß hosts a Cuban night every Wednesday.
You will get other information going to the sites www.salsa-stuttgart.de and www.latin.de where all the events are listed.
