DJ Chocolate Escobar is one of the most influential Venezuelan DJs in Australia — a true ambassador of Latin culture since 1997. With deep roots in the rhythms of Cuba, salsa, and Afro-Caribbean music, he has dedicated more than two decades to promoting the vibrant pulse of Latin sound across Australia’s nightlife and cultural landscape.
From Havana’s son and New York salsa dura to the irresistible energy of timba and Afro-Cuban percussion, Chocolate Escobar masterfully blends authenticity with modern dancefloor energy. His sets are more than music — they are a celebration of history, rhythm, and identity.
Known as “El Jockey más influyente de Venezuela en Australia,” he has helped shape the evolution of the Latin scene, inspiring generations of dancers, DJs, and music lovers to connect with the essence of Caribbean culture through sound.
What was once known as Fiesta Festival — the iconic celebration of Latin culture — has now evolved into Salsa & Latin By The Bay, and DJ Chocolate Escobar continues to be a driving force behind it. Still lighting up the stage and uniting crowds with his explosive mixes, he remains at the center of Australia’s Latin music movement, spreading the fire of salsa, Cuban rhythms, and Afro-Caribbean beats wherever he performs.
Beyond the decks, he stands as a cultural bridge — representing Latin America with pride and passion, and keeping its music alive, relevant, and powerful in the heart of Australia.
