Dancers from near and far came to the three-day Shanghai Salsa Festival at Zhijiang Dream Factory last weekend-including headliners Cubamemucho, who incorporated machetes and bongo drums into their spirited performance.
The festival also showcased dance contestants from local universities, Indonesia and Salsa Shanghai (the organizers for the weekend party). If you missed this year's affair, you'll still have another chance to dance - organizers are already planning to make this an annual event.
