Barcelona is the second destination city with the major Salsero movement in the Iberian Peninsula
After the Spanish capital, Barcelona, Galicia, and Alicante are the main cities with the greatest salsa identity.
During the 90s this tropical rhythm began to be adopted in the territory and the first cities to put aside the prejudice toward Latin music were Madrid, Murcia, Cádiz, and Galicia, although Salsa was always heard in the Canary Islands but that is a story that we will tell later.
Currently, Barcelona is the second city with the most salsa movement and there are many options where you can enjoy an amazing dance experience in combination with tropical music and amplified energy.

Since it opened in the mid-nineties, this concert hall has consolidated itself as the temple of salsa and Cuban son in the capital. The best bands have played on its stage and the programming continues to be irreproachable.
The house was built in the 40’s in one of the most aristocratic neighborhoods of the capital and was the headquarters of a lodge of the Masonic Foundation. It had two floors of masonry and tiles and included in its ample distribution a party room, stage, and auditorium, a premonition of what it would be half a century later. The Irrumpe Theater Group and the Fondo Cubano de Bienes Culturales (Cuban Fund of Cultural Goods) also passed through it, then sadness came over every corner of the House until EGREM knocked on its doors to break the silence and turn it into the House of Musicians and Cuban Music.
It began with the EGREM Award Gala in April 1995 and in October of the same year, with the concert of the great Cuban musician Chucho Valdés and the group Irakere, it passed the test of fire because this concert was recorded live in the memory of the House thanks to the latest technology equipment it has.
The House was created to exhibit and commercialize the Cuban discography in different media and to promote the recognition of the work of our artistic talents through live presentations, and as a complement to this, the gastronomic offer, always preserving the most genuine values of the national culture.
We are an organization that from the hand of its Founder, Director, and Editor Eduardo Guillarte, in force since 2007 has been working nonprofit helping to promote:
Orchestras, Singers, DJs, Clubs, Plastic Artists in North America, Europe, and Latin America and Asia and with the contribution of volunteers in various parts of the world, which at the same time invite and recommend all lovers, dancers of our Latin music to visit the Casa de la Musica, Playa / Miramar in Havana Cuba.
