The Bachata Geneva Festival is one of Europe's flagship bachata events, returning 8-12 October 2026 at the Palexpo congress centre in Geneva, just minutes from the airport. Billed as The Festival of Nations, it gathers dancers from more than 70 countries for five days of workshops, socials, DJ sets and shows in a world-class production setting. The festival hosts the Finals of the Bachata Social World Cup, with around 180 competitors representing six continents plus a pre-qualifier event. It is a fully bachata-focused congress and has become a global meeting point for the dance, with limited passes that have sold out in previous editions.
