Enjoy an unforgettable Cuban night in Los Angeles

Go back to your beloved island at A night in Havana

As long as we leave our home countries to go and live in a new land, there are times when we long for the place that we left behind and would like to be there, even for a short time, and remember so many good things we experienced despite the challenges. Fortunately, the United States is a multicultural country that allows us to go back to our roots through festivals, concerts and events in general that serve to take us back to our place of origin.

In the case of the millions of Cubans who make life in Los Angeles, there are many options to entertain and remember their beloved island at the same time. A night in Havana is a great alternative to return to the Cuban capital again and again with everything that its organizers have to offer attendees. It will be a night to remember where there will be endless activities for the whole family. 

This is a fundraising gala, which will be held in order to provide financing to a few vacational projects in countries such as Mexico, Costa Rica, Nicaragua, among others. At the event, attendees will be able to enjoy dinners, dances, entertainment, surprise guests, auctions, drinks and much more. The best thing is that everything what is taking place here will be enlivened by a live salsa orchestra whose talent will offer those present an evening that they will not forget for a long time.

This is why there are opportunities like this to spend a pleasant time and contribute to those most in need at the same time.  On the same website, those who wish to attend the gala can acquire their tickets, ranging in cost from about $100 to $500 according to anything they include. 

As for the chosen location, it is a spectacular event venue located in North Hollywood whose elegance, good taste and greatness will pleasantly shock the lucky ones who attend this wonderful place. It is none other than the incredible Bellaire Banquet Hall, which is one of those great venues where you can appreciate a spectacular dance floor with an aquarium of great extension included, which is rather striking in a place of these characteristics. This makes any evening much more special than anyone can imagine.
