Dance Club in San Francisco: Dance Fridays at Space 550

Looking for a dance club in San Francisco where you can actually learn to dance? Dance Fridays is San Francisco's Friday-night salsa and bachata club at Space 550. Every Friday you get beginner lessons, two rooms of music and social dancing until 1:45 am. No partner or experience needed. 21+.

What kind of dance club is it?

Dance Fridays is a Latin dance club night, not a bottle-service nightclub. People come to dance with each other: salsa, bachata and more, with lessons first so beginners can join in. It's run by SalsaCrazy, which has been teaching salsa in San Francisco for more than 30 years and has hosted over 1,400 events and 105,400 attendees on Eventbrite.
