Changó is West London's home for 100% salsa — just 15 minutes from Notting Hill.
Notting Hill is famous for its vibrant culture, and Changó adds another reason to love this corner of West London. The Amadeus in Maida Vale is just 15 minutes from Notting Hill Gate by tube, making it the closest dedicated salsa social for local residents. Every event plays 100% salsa and includes a free Crossbody Salsa class from 8.15–9pm.
From Notting Hill Gate station, take the Circle or District line two stops to Paddington, then swap to the Bakerloo line for one stop to Warwick Avenue. The journey takes about 15 minutes. You can also catch the 52 bus north along Ladbroke Grove towards Kensal Rise — get off at Shirland Road. On foot, it is a 25-minute walk north up Ladbroke Grove.
Changó is built by dancers, for dancers — no mixed playlists, no filler, just pure salsa from start to finish. Notting Hill residents love the intimate yet energetic atmosphere at The Amadeus, the welcoming community of crossbody and Cali-style dancers, and the fact that every ticket includes a free class to start the night.
