DJ Timbalero (François) is a long-time ambassador of Cuban music and timba, known for bringing raw Cuban flavour straight to the dance floor. Based in Strasbourg, France, his journey into Cuban music started in the late 90s and quickly grew into a deep, lifelong connection to the scene.
Beyond DJing, he has been heavily involved in building the Cuban dance and music community in Europe, co-founding the AHINAMA association and creating the Cubahinama Festival, where top Cuban artists, dancers and live bands came together in one place.
A regular guest at major Cuban and salsa festivals across Europe and one of the few European DJs invited to play at Maykel Blanco’s Havana Salsa Festival in Havana - DJ Timbalero brings experience, credibility and unmistakable Cuban sound.
This edition, you can expect authentic timba, strong Cuban rhythms and a dance floor that stays alive from the first track to the last.
