Vinales Nightlife
Valle Son |
Valle Son performs every Tuesday and two Saturdays per month in Centro Culturo Polo Montañez in Vinales
They embrace the rich variety of Cuban rhythms like son, salsa, mambo, chachacha and pop and while staying true to their musical roots always add a twist and some youthful energy to everything they play.
You might think of them as the grand children of the Buena Vista Social Club generation. |

One of the liveliest places of the quiet nights of Pinar del Río with a big open-air stage where a very good dancing group acts. There are sometimes bands of "salsa" too.
