EXPERIENCE · Dance nights with Tanzhaus NRW

Latino rhythms and summer joy — in cooperation with the renowned Tanzhaus NRW, Kö-Bogen transforms into an open-air dance floor on four Thursdays. From 18:00, a free dance introduction with instructors from Tanzhaus starts; from 19:00, a DJ takes over for an open-air Salsa night.

The series is low-threshold: no registration required, all levels welcome, from beginner to experienced dancer. Bring a partner or friends, or come alone and find easy company.

„Open air, no registration, no admission fee — four Thursdays when Kö-Bogen dances.“

When the sun sets behind Königsallee, the area at Kö-Bogen turns into an open-air dance floor under the summer sky. Between Daniel Libeskind's striking architecture and the floating gardens of the Kö, beginners, advanced dancers and the simply curious come together for an evening full of Latino rhythms.

The free introduction by instructors from Tanzhaus NRW takes the nerves out of the first steps, after which the DJ keeps the crowd moving. Bring a partner or friends, or come alone and find company quickly. It is a relaxed, welcoming meeting point for everyone who wants to dance their way through summer in the heart of the Düsseldorf city centre.
