Beledi Lounge

This intimate, relaxed event is an interactive way to enjoy Middle Eastern music and dance. Unlike many belly dance haflas, this is not a show but a real party, with 100 percent Middle Eastern music, performances by Zumarrad and select guests, and plenty of time for you to dance socially, Middle Eastern style.

The Tanda Orientale format, a concept borrowed from Argentinian tango, provides a wide range of music in short blocks, so there is always something you will enjoy. You can dance, or just listen, without pressure.

Beledi Lounge is held every few months. Check the website or Facebook for details!
