CRUISE BAR

EVERY THURSDAY NIGHTS ~ From 8:30pm

Who said the weekend starts on Friday? Not if you are in Sydney, and definitely not, if you happen to be at Circular Quay's Cruise Bar.

Considered one of Sydney Salsa's premier waterfront venues, the Cruise Bar is jam packed each Thursday evening with some of Sydney's finest salseros swinging their hips to the best Latin rhythms.

From the moment you enter, through the Bar's wide, open doorways, you will feel a tingle through your bones and will find yourself immediately transported to another world. A world where salsa is king; where bodies intoxicated with the rhythms are swaying and swirling nonstop; where all your worries melt away and you feel as though you've finally found yourself - and this has nothing to do with the huge selection of Cuban-themed drinks on offer at the bar!

From his sound box on an elevated stage, DJ Dwight Chocolate Escobar reigns supreme. His eclectic mix of salsa beats heat up both the dance-floor and the crowd at large until the barometer is red hot. Passers by can't help but enter and give themselves over to the music - and when DJ Dwight Chocolate Escobar sees this, then he can't help but smile and turn up the heat a little more...

The crowd is made up of Sydney Salsa's dancers as well as those who enjoy coming in for a drink and to watch the dancing.

"The feel of the place is just amazing," says salsa regular Mareejoseph.

"Show me another salsa venue on such a perfect harbour with the best mix of music, people and views."

Equally enthusiastic are people such as James and Melanie, representative of the non-salsa crowd who frequent the place.

"We aren't salsa dancers but we love coming here just to watch,"

"The DJ plays fantastic music, the people are really friendly and after a few more drinks at the bar we really feel as though we are in Cuba!"

Cruise Bar has a long, rectangular shaped bar fronted by large indoor and outdoor spaces perfect for dancing.

Rain, hail or balmy summer night, Cruise Bar is always filled to overflowing.

"It's magical," says salsa supremo Fausto. "I love to rumba and Cruise Bar has just the right mix of people who want to dance and have a good time."

Long time salsa regulars David and Catherine are equally positive. "We can't wait for Thursday to come around because we know we have a classy venue with a world class DJ guaranteeing us a fabulous night!"
