"I started Maloof Entertainment because I believed Tampa Bay's Latin community deserved world-class nights. Fifteen years later, that belief hasn't changed — it's just been proven right 1,500 times. Whether I'm producing a recurring Latin night for your venue, hosting your wedding, or commanding a festival main stage, the standard is always the same. I show up, I hold the room, and I make sure everyone in it feels exactly where they are supposed to be."
Maloof Entertainment hosts recurring monthly events across Tampa Bay. La Sala at Babes Coffee Lounge in Land O Lakes every third Friday, and Classic Salsa Sundays at 809 Lounge Tampa every first Sunday at 3 PM. All events include a beginner lesson and welcome all skill levels.
No experience required. Every single event starts with a beginner-friendly lesson covering basic steps and timing. Most people who attend have never danced before. You will be moving confidently within 30 minutes.
No partner needed at any of our events. Most people attend solo or in groups of friends. During lessons we rotate partners so you practice with multiple people and meet the room naturally.

"I've known Chris Maloof almost 10 years, and it continues to be a supreme pleasure attending any of the Latin Nights or Salsa Sundays or any event for that matter, facilitated or hosted by Maloof Entertainment. Chris has been a supportive instrument in building a spectacular dancing community of family and friends. And regardless of venue or event, his awareness and attentiveness to the audience is outstandingly stellar. He's always provided us joy and fun, casted in an ambience of acceptance and inclusivity, all graced with professionalism. Thank you Chris for your genuine love, dedication, and appreciation of our love for Salsa. Blessings!"
