After hearing of the alleged cancellation of the Dia de San Juan (DSJ) Baile, I deleted the blog post. Alas, the Baile is still going to happen! Last night's DSJ committee meeting was jam-packed with West-siders who voiced their enthusiasm about the Baile, suggesting that we deserve a party before we roast in the late afternoon heat the following week at the DSJ festival. A few people offered nostalgic anecdotes about the rich history of the El Casino Ballroom. This venue sounds like a perfect balance of funky and magical.
The Baile will be Saturday, June 13th from 6pm - 1am at the historic El Casino Ballroom. There will be a series of musical performances including Hollywood Knights and DJ Pepe Galvez, and from what I understand, the dance floor will be lively.
Tickets are $10 in advance and $12 at the door. The proceeds will support the historic Dia de San Juan festival. If you would like me to deliver tickets to you, please email me at amy@gadsdencompany.com.
