¡Latin Night with Tumbao!

¡Latin Night with Tumbao! brings the energy of a pan-American Latin dance party to Bossa Bistro & Lounge every Saturday, and this edition on July 18, 2026, continues the tradition. The band Tumbao, led by Cuban keyboardist Jorge Martinez, delivers hot rhythms spanning Cuba, Puerto Rico, the Dominican Republic, Venezuela, Colombia, and occasionally a Brazilian song in homage to the venue.
