The Ottawa Salsa Convention is a dance festival that celebrates Latin dance culture in the Ottawa-Gatineau region by providing an opportunity for dancers to develop their skills and showcase their talents in a three-day festival. By inviting local, national and international artists to teach publicly-accessible workshops in a variety of Latin dance styles (such as Salsa, Bachata, Cha-Cha, Kizomba, Zouk, Tango, Latin Ballroom), we give dancers in Ottawa a unique opportunity to refine their techniques and abilities while introducing non dancers in the region to a multitude of vibrant styles of dance.
