Celebrate Cinco de Mayo with a Salsa Class and the Sugar Kings

One Night, Two Ways to Celebrate:
Cinco de Mayo at Nightjar

Tuesday, 5th May | 6:30 PM – Late

This Cinco de Mayo, we’re turning up the heat in the Shoreditch Underground. Whether you’re here to master the dance floor or simply soak up the sounds of Havana with a tequila in hand, we have two ways for you to celebrate.

 
 

Part 1: The Salsa Masterclass

6:30 PM – 8:30 PM | Tickets: £20

Trade your typical Tuesday for a night of rhythm and agave. We’re welcoming the Dalston Salsa Social Club for an exclusive Cuban Salsa masterclass.

  • The Dance: Immerse yourself in Rueda de Casino—a vibrant, social Cuban round dance. Perfect for total beginners or seasoned salseros. No partner? No problem.

  • The Spirits: Your £20 ticket secures your spot on the floor and includes a signature Herradura Tequila cocktail from our curated Cinco de Mayo menu, with additional cocktails priced at just £9 before 8pm.

Note: Spaces are strictly limited for the class.

 
 

Part 2: The Afterparty with The Sugar Kings

9:00 PM till Late | cover charge: FREE

The energy continues long after the class ends. From 9:00 PM, we transition into a night of live Cuban music and Herradura specials.

  • The Music: Transport yourself to the gambling dens of pre-revolution Havana. The Sugar Kings Trio (featuring Flavio Correa, Elpidio Caicedo, and Daniel Carnago) will perform a repertoire of son Cubano, vintage mambo, and cha-cha-cha.

  • The Drinks: Enjoy a range of Herradura Tequila specials available at the bar all night.

Note: There is no cover charge for the live music set, but we recommend booking a table to guarantee entry.
