Phu Quoc Summer Latin Festival 2026 (PSLF2026)

   From 29 October to 2 November, the island hosts the Phu Quoc Summer Latin Festival - the 5th edition of an international salsa, bachata and Cuban timba festival that turns the Seashells hotel into Vietnam's biggest Latin dance floor for a few days.

   The judges and instructors are current and former world champions: Tony Elhaber and Sheila (Italy), 12-time salsa world champions, Osmani Segura (Cuba), a 24-time Latin dance world champion, plus couples from France, Spain, El Salvador, Chile, Venezuela, Poland and Japan. The programme includes masterclasses, exclusive performance bootcamps culminating on the main stage, professional intensives and world-class evening shows.

   Parties run until 5am across three simultaneous rooms - one each for bachata, salsa (on1/on2/mambo) and Cuban timba - plus a dedicated sunset beach party and a Halloween party on the schedule. For anyone who wants to compete, there are Jack & Jill and couple battle categories in salsa and bachata for amateurs and professionals, entry from $20 per category.

   Good for anyone who already dances Latin or wants to try it for the first time - from beginners to competitors. Festival access runs on tiered passes (Full Pass, Super Pass, VIP Pass); exact pricing and registration are on the official site.

   Organised by Phu Quoc Summer Latin Festival together with Franklong HV; the current schedule and artist line-up are published on the festival's website.
