WHAT PEOPLE SAY ABOUT IT?

Feeling safe, welcomed, and truly inspired

"I had such a fantastic time at the festival! Everything was so well organized - from the moment I arrived, it all just flowed effortlessly. The music was amazing, the dancers and instructors were top-notch, and the workshops I attended were all incredibly inspiring and fun. 

One of the things that truly stood out to us was how safe and welcoming the entire atmosphere felt. No matter where you went, people were smiling, helpful, and kind. Big thanks to everyone who worked so hard to create such a positive and memorable experience!"

Perfect setup for dancing all day and night

"Lots of specialized dancing areas (especially Cuban salsa and bachata sensual), great night parties and daytime socials, dancing areas in the shadow (most of them) in the day, all parties in 1 big location, all socials in 1 big location - easier to orient yourself. 

Shuttles were really useful."

A decade of dancing, emotions, and friendship

"I just want to thank you for this amazing event. I can't imagine all the work that you do to pull this off. You are great. This event is great. I've attended the festival 10 times, Rovinj and CSSF is now so close to my heart that when I leave I cry a little. 
So many emotions, friends and amazing energy. 
Keep up the EXCELLENT work!"

From bars to messages – everything runs perfectly

"I liked the organization, as always. The place is very well organized, it’s easy to buy drinks at the bar, the messages are always clear on Telegram or by email, I really appreciate the order and organization of the festival. I also like that you can dance during the day at a good party, not just at night. That’s the main reason I come."
