El Sol Festival Fall Edition takes over the Sound Garden Hotel in Warsaw from Thursday 12th to Monday 16th November 2026, with the same concept and the same main venue as the spring elSol events. Salsa, bachata and Cuban dancers each get their own workshops, day socials and dance floors, and everything comes together at the night parties from Thursday to Sunday. The bachata room is led by Pablo & Raquel, Kike & Nahir, Gaby & Estefy, Klau & Ros, Ofir & Ofri and Michael & Mayra, with Jon & Noe, Edwin & Marianita and DJ Clau and DJ Momo Latino behind the decks. On the salsa and Cuban side the lineup includes Adolfo & Tania, Rodrigo Cortazar, Supermario, Karel Flores, Maykel Fonts and CubanFlex. The hotel sits next to Warsaw Chopin Airport, so you can land and walk to the dance floor.

This is a multi style festival rather than a bachata only weekend: pick the Bachata pass if you only want the bachata workshops, or the VIP pass if you want classes in every room. The bachata lineup mixes Spanish and international couples, and the Party pass is a good option if you mainly want to social dance across all floors. Prices go up after 9 November and again at the door, so buy online and only through the official channels, as the organisers have warned about ticket scams. Rooms at the Sound Garden Hotel are booked through the festival.
