Fiesta Lafrique - SBK festival

February 19-21, 2027 postponed

Due to the rising temperatures we had to move our Rueda Exchange Festival to March 2027. This unfortunately means that we have to postpone Fiesta Lafrique to a later date, probably October or November. Please check here again around January to find out what date Fiesta Lafrique is going to be.

---

Lafrique opened its doors in January 2015. In 2025 we celebrated our 10th birthday with a SBK-Festival named Fiesta Lafrique and a new tradition has started. This is THE event you have been waiting for.
