More than a music venue.

Here at Band on the Wall, we believe music has the power to engage, inspire and unite people.

From artists from around the world taking to our stage, to community choirs, music-making sessions, workshops and free events, we create opportunities for people to discover, experience and participate in music.

We believe music can bring people together, open up new perspectives and create a sense of belonging. That means championing new artists, celebrating different cultures and traditions, and creating a space where everyone can feel part of the community.

The Queen of Salsa 👑

Celia Cruz’s unmistakable voice, magnetic stage presence and legendary “¡Azúcar!” made her one of the most iconic figures in Latin music.

Born in Havana, she became a global ambassador for Cuban music and one of the defining voices of salsa, inspiring generations of artists with her powerful vocals, charisma and infectious energy.

We’re celebrating the iconic sound of Celia and the women who have shaped Latin music on 3 September, as Salsa de Cuba presents A Tribute to Latin Divas, honouring legendary artists including La Lupe, Selena, Yolandita Rivera, Karol G and more.
