Havana Rakatan Tickets

Havana Rakatan is an iconic Afro-Cuban dance spectacle that traces its origins to Havana, founded in 2001 by celebrated choreographer Nilda Guerra. The show made its debut in 2007 at the Peacock Theatre in London, launching a trail of acclaimed seasons and international engagements. Central to the performance is Turquino, an eight-piece live band whose musicians on stage drive the authentic, rhythmic heartbeat of the show.

Rooted in Afro-Cuban heritage, Havana Rakatan masterfully blends mambo, bolero, son, rumba, cha-cha-cha, and salsa, delivering a vibrant tapestry of movement and music. The dancers, many of whom are graduates of the Escuela Nacional de Arte de la Habana, bring technical precision and expressive storytelling to every piece.

Explore the bold history, standout moments, and the current status of Havana Rakatan, including past London seasons (2007–2010), a celebrated run at the Sydney Opera House in 2011, and a notable appearance at the NYC Center in 2015. While current schedules may vary and some ticket platforms show no confirmed 2025 dates, Havana Rakatan remains a landmark in Latin dance theatre with a lasting global footprint.
