KEKOSON live at The Gov – Sunday 5 October (Long Weekend)

CubaMania Extravaganza

Adelaide, get ready to ignite the dance floor!

On Sunday 5 October 2025 (Long Weekend), La Bomba Productions proudly presents the CubaMania Extravaganza, bringing the vibrant spirit of Havana to The Gov.

Headlining the night is KEKOSON, the dynamic Melbourne-based Latin band fronted by charismatic singer Keko Virán. With infectious energy and authenticity, KEKOSON has captivated audiences across Australia and internationally, delivering the true essence of Son Cubano – the music that gave birth to salsa.

In 2001, Keko travelled to Cuba where he met his idols from the legendary Buena Vista Social Club – Compay Segundo, Ibrahim Ferrer and Cachaíto López. That life-changing journey inspired him to form KEKOSON, now recognised by the Cuban Ambassador in Australia as the country’s most authentic exponents of traditional Cuban Son. Their shows are renowned for vibrant musicianship, irresistible rhythms, and a joyous atmosphere that keeps crowds dancing all night.

“I like how playing this music makes me feel, but more importantly, I like how it makes other people feel,” says Keko. “I love to see everyone dancing and enjoying themselves just as people used to a century ago in Cuba.”

CubaMania Extravaganza highlights:

  • KEKOSON Quintet LIVE – explosive Cuban Son straight from the streets of Havana.

  • International Cuban dance stars – Mariesly Paradelo, Dayan Sánchez Marsilli and Piter Pantoja lighting up the stage and dancefloor with spectacular shows and interactive workshops.

  • La Bomba’s DJ Señorita – spinning irresistible Latin beats till late.

  • Student showcase – celebrating Adelaide’s vibrant local Latin dance community.
