Biennale de la Culture Cubaine 2026 – Mujeres: a vibrant evening at Couvent Levat

Great news! The 2nd edition of the Cuban Culture Biennial is coming to Marseille, and this year it honors the women who keep, transmit, and reinvent Cuban culture. 🎉 Join us on Friday, August 28, 2026 at Couvent Levat (52 rue Levat, 13003 Marseille), from 5:00 PM to 11:30 PM. An evening where music, dance, fashion, photography, and gastronomy meet for a unique journey between Havana and Marseille. And the best part? Entry is pay-what-you-wish for the whole evening! 🌴

From 5:30 PM, dive into Afro-Cuban rhythms with a percussion workshop led by Yoandy San Martin. An initiation open to all, but note: only 12 participants maximum! Book your spot quickly for €15 via the HelloAsso link. Meanwhile, and throughout the evening, don't miss the photo exhibition Hip-Objectivo: La Habana, which captures the energy of the hip-hop scene in the Cuban capital. 📸

At 7:00 PM, the dance floor heats up with a DJ set by Lily de Cuba: son, salsa, timba, reggaeton, reparto, and Afro-Caribbean music will get you moving. Then at 8:00 PM, fashion takes the stage with a runway show by Aïna Adrover and Maylis Mendousse Le Bihan: 16 silhouettes that dialogue between the Malecón and the Corniche. At 8:30 PM, the dance performance Les Queeneuses explores Cuban reparto with contemporary, feminist, and inclusive energy. Finally, at 9:00 PM, the exceptional concert La Femme Cubaine takes you on a musical journey between Cuba, Spain, and Egypt, with artists like Isabel Ramos, Jany Quiñones, Maura Isabel Garcia, Zurley Diaz Montalvo, Thaïs Llopiz, Sarah Wassef, and guests. 🎶

To eat, the food truck La Cubana by Daris Duany delights you with traditional, family-style Cuban cuisine, 100% homemade. 🍴 And to get there, it's simple: bus line 49 (Belle de Mai stop) or 56 (Bernard Clovis Hugues stop), a bike shelter at the entrance, a scooter stop just opposite La Friche, or on foot (15-20 min from Les Réformés or Saint-Charles).

So, see you there? Book your workshop now and get ready for an unforgettable evening at the heart of Cuban women's creativity. 🌺 For any questions, write to contact@latinoonthemove.com or check the Couvent's website. See you soon!
