Redwood City’s annual celebration of dance and picante sauce returns. Eleven blocks of downtown Redwood City transforms into a salsa-dancing playground on Saturday with three stages of live salsa, Latin jazz and reggae. And then of course there is the salsa. From mild to medium and hot to “what hath God wrought?!”—there’s a little something for everyone. Enjoy salsa tastings from top local chefs as they compete for bragging rights and the title of best salsa in the Bay Area. There’s also art projects, entertainment for kids and—praise be!—tequila tasting as well.

Salsa festival? So, are we talking the music or the condiment? Good news: It’s both! Eleven blocks of downtown Redwood City transforms into a salsa-dancing playground on Saturday with three stages of live salsa, Latin jazz and reggae. And that other stuff? It’s all over the place, with salsa tasting from top local chefs all competing for bragging rights for best salsa in the Bay Area. (Contest tasting takes place from noon to 5pm with winners announced shortly afterward.) There’s also art projects, entertainment for kids and—praise be!—tequila tasting as well.

There is no such thing as too much salsa. Whether it’s the shimmying rhythm of the musical style, the hip-swivelling steps of the Latin dance or the tangy, tongue-torching tastes of the traditional taco topping, it seems everything can benefit from a little spice.

There is no such thing as too much salsa. Whether it’s the shimmying rhythm of the musical style, the hip-swivelling steps of the Latin dance or the tangy, tongue-torching tastes of the traditional taco topping, it seems everything can benefit from a little spice. The Salsa Festival returns to downtown Redwood City this weekend for its 10th year. Naturally, there will be plenty of great music, lively dancing and a whole lot of salsas to sample—from mild to maniacal. In addition to the food and entertainment, there will be tequila flights and kid-friendly activities, so bring the entire familia.
