Suggestions on making it affordable

Book your pass!

We are now selling party passes for the entire weekend (from Friday to Sunday), which include day socials on Saturday and Sunday and night socials on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. We are also planning free pre-parties on Wednesday and Thursday nights. All pass holders can join the yoga/stretching classes on Saturday and Sunday for free!

Tickets for individual parties will be available starting in July 2026. Their number and availability will depend on the overall number of weekend passes already sold and the follow-leader ratio (we are striving to have a maximum of 55% of followers among our dancers).

Our full weekend party passes currently go for EUR 125, but check in with our ambassadors for discounts and watch out for special promotions at major mambo events! There will be no ticket sales at the door, so make sure you book yours ahead of time!

A three-day mambo social in central geneva

Highlights:

30+ hours of pure social dancing

As passionate social dancers ourselves, we cannot overemphasize the importance of quality social dancing, and we want to offer our guests pure social dance bliss. With us, you can dance for two afternoons and three nights until early morning, both inside and outside! You can also join us for pre-parties on Wednesday and Thursday nights. During the parties at our main venue, you'll have free water, coffee, tea, and snacks to keep you hydrated and energized!

Incredible DJs

We consider great music to be the foundation of an excellent salsa event. That's why we approached some of our favorite DJs, many of whom are nurtured by our own pure Swiss air (with a nice injection of the French and London savoir-faire!). These maestros know how to give you goosebumps and make you stay on the dance floor until the last song! During the first two editions in 2024 and 2025, many of our attendees praised the quality of music and sound, and we will make sure to keep it this way in 2026, too!

Gorgeous venue in central Geneva

Live concert on the lake on Friday

We are still waiting to confirm our venue for 2026, but it's likely to remain the beautiful OptimHall in Geneva's Acacias neighborhood, just 10-15 minutes on foot from the center of town. With over 600 sq. meters of dance floor, 8-meter ceilings, comfy couches to rest your feet, a cocktail bar, and a dedicated lounge space, it's a treat for us dancers! The venue is currently installing a whole new dance floor, so we hope our dancers' feet will be happy!

We will be opening the weekend once again with a live concert at the Bains de Paquis, on the shores of the lake with these gorgeous views Geneva is famous for! The band will be confirmed in the coming months. The concert will take place from 6:30 pm until 8:00 pm, and you can enjoy this popular Geneva beach spot beforehand to take a swim in the cool lake waters and have a very reasonably priced dinner at the beach restaurant after.

Experience Swiss quality

Leaders and Followers parity

Swiss quality is a world-renowned concept, and we strive to apply it to our event. That's why we are thinking of every detail to make your experience flawless, be it the music, the dance floor, the venue, proximity to the city center, ease of finding affordable hotel and restaurant options nearby, and the overall friendly and open atmosphere. We are grateful for all the feedback we received in 2024 and 2025, and are working hard on addressing all comments in 2025 to make sure our event is even better this year!

We have had our fair share of frustrations at events where there were simply too many followers compared to leaders. We want to make sure this is not the case at the Perfectly Mambo Geneva Weekend. At our 2nd edition, we had 54% of followers, which is quite a good ratio! In 2026, we will put even more effort into monitoring the ratio of tickets sold to leaders and followers to ensure all our ladies get a chance to dance all night long and the gentlemen don't get worn out! Unfortunately, this may mean that we may stop selling follower tickets early, so ladies, don't wait too long to get your pass!
