The DC, Maryland, Virginia Salsa Scene
The Capital Congress would not be possible without the tremendous help and support from the DC, Maryland, and Virginia Salsa scene. This event is an opportunity for everyone to be an ambassador for the DMV. While the CapitalCongress is an annual event, it's possible to dance Salsa in the DC area all year! You will find some of the places that we dance Salsa in DC, Maryland, and Virginia listed on the left. While we keep this information as up-to-date as possible, it is always recommended to check before going! Many of the Salsa nights are hosted by local instructors, schools, and promoters listed below. Feel free to contact them directly for more information!
