Barrio Bugalú

Almost two decades ago some of the most serious Latin record collectors in Chicago joined forces to play for a packed dance floor at Sonotheque as part of the Chicago World Music Festival (2007). The monthly all-vinyl Barrio Bugalú was born at one of Chicago’s top audiophile destinations. SRBCC relives Barrio Bugalú with appearances by the original host DJs (Super Barrio Brothers and Agúzate DJ Crew), as well as special sets by some of Chicago’s most avid vinyl selectors.

To be held every fourth Friday of the month starting on July 26, Barrio Bugalú is not just a dance party; it's a celebration of history, a tribute to the pioneers of Latin music, and a testament to the timeless power of Afro-Caribbean rhythms to bring people together. Food and beverage available for purchase. $10 donation requested to sustain SRBCC’s Artist Fund. BYOB! Patio open. Salsa dance classes. All ages welcome.
