Salsology, salsa in Manchester, UK

Salsology Club: Next event:  March 12th 2010

Salsology is Manchester’s premier salsa club night and attracts dancers from across the UK and further afield. The event has a touch of class – a superb venue, reminiscent of dancehall days, quality salsa classes at each event and dancefloor-friendly DJing.

Salsology normally takes place every other month on the second Friday of the month, hosted by the Salsologists, Kate, Emma and Mushi at the Longfield Centre in Prestwich, Manchester. Come and take a look!

Tram Service from Piccadilly and Victoria Train Stations

From Victoria

Take the Metrolink tram from Victoria Station direct to Prestwich. The stop at Prestwich is literally over the road from the venue and takes around 20 mins. It costs £2.70 single journey and runs every 12mins. The last Metrolink tram leaves Prestwich at 12.51am on Friday nights.

From Piccadilly

Take the Bury Metrolink Tram service (again it’s direct) and takes 20-23 travelling time, also leaving every 12mins.

Overnight Accommodation

Those travelling further than usual may need overnight accommodation. There's a Travel Inn a short walk from the venue which is £50 per room at the time of writing. (Tel: 08701 977 175 for reservations.) The Etap Hotel at Salford Quays is just £33 per room per night and will take 3 adults. It's small but clean, new and a fifteen minute drive from the venue.

For a change to staying in a hotel room, book serviced Manchester accommodation.  Citybase Apartments offer a comfortable, affordable place to relax in after your salsa dancing.
