Branch out from Chicago’s typical club scene and try your hand at salsa dancing. And if you’ve already had some ballroom experience, find your new favorite spot to dance the night away.

Alhambra Palace

Restaurant

Alhambra Palace is an institute of Middle Eastern fine dining and entertainment that came together after the owner built his authentic collection of art and artifacts to furnish the establishment. Every week, they put on their famous Salsa Tuesdays at 7 PM. Live music, DJs, and classes chug on until 2 AM. http://instagram.com/p/BNbKUkZBRnW/?hl=en

The Cubby Bear

It’s not all cheap beer and baseball games. The famous Cubby Bear just across the street from Wrigley Field is usually a sports mecca, and it’s likely even to grow in popularity due to the Chicago Cubs’ recent success. But every Sunday night for just $10, they offer DJs spinning salsa music, live bands, and even lessons at 7:30 PM. Expand your horizons without ever leaving the comfort of your favorite Wrigleyville bar.
