Aloha Summer Weekender 2026

Featuring World Champion Bachata and Salsa artist Martin Gonzalez and DJ Jo Jo from LA for the first time in Hawaii
About this Event

Aloha Summer Weekender exists to bring dancers closer—to the masters, to the roots, and to the legacy of Latin dance itself. This weekend is about proximity. One-on-one moments, shared floors, real conversations. It is about learning from the legends who built the foundation we dance on today—and honoring the shoulders we stand on as we move forward.

​

This is not a congress. This is not a festival. This is legacy, in paradise.
