Join us tonight!

The stunning scenery and dance floor for this Saturday’s Tenth Anniversary Celebration 2! The Leander Banquet Hall is situated at the foot of Hamilton’s Bay Street and is just a hop skip and a jump from our beloved Pier 8 Salsa on the Waterfront skating (dancing 😉) rink. Not only does this space boast floor to ceiling windows overlooking the harbour, it also has a balcony where you can take in fresh air and admire a gorgeous park and lake view.

This is a one-of-a-kind venue for a one-of-a-kind night that you will not want to miss! Featuring KUMBAO LATIN BAND and DJ JORGE ELMIRO, there will be nothing left to desire. So, what are you waiting for? 😊 Advance tickets are available at this Eventbrite link: https://bit.ly/3zrOTHx. We are so excited to be sharing this landmark occasion with you all! 


(Please note that the hall is on the second floor, and although they are working on it, Leander is not yet a fully accessible facility.)
