Thanks John, that's very helpful! I've seen this site already :) I was looking more for weekends though (not classes necessarily) and haven't found anything. I just can't believe that there wouldn't be any bar open with Latin music on Fri/Sat!

Hi Marta,

I think I know a place you will like- at the new bar Floridita in the centre of town they have Latin music all night every night at the weekends. Of course its a bit cheesy but they do play some good music too, and there are usually live Cuban (style) bands on a Friday/Sat night. Nice food in the restaurant too, and affordable cocktails. Also Viva Cuba in town play some good Latin music, not the Kirkstall Lane one as this is just restaurant now. Have fun! x

Wow, that sounds perfect! Especially with live music on. Cheesy, well that's how it has to be, isn't it? You can't be serious all the time! ;)Thanks very much for the info!xxx
