Latin beats. Thursday heat.
Why be here
Thursdays are for dancing at Caliente! Join us at Nightingale Cocktail in Des Moines' Historic East Village for an energetic night of Latin music, movement, and craft cocktails.
Start with our free 8 PM beginner-friendly dance lesson, then stay for resident DJs spinning Salsa, Bachata, Reggaeton, and Latin party anthems. No partner or prior experience needed—bring your friends, come on your own, and make the dancefloor yours.
From the first lesson to the late-night beats, Caliente! is a welcoming way to kick off the weekend early. Guest-list attendees receive free entry before 10 PM. 21+ with valid ID.
