A bit more about our new home:
The London Irish Centre is a versatile, modern and welcoming venue situated on a tranquil, leafy corner of Camden Square only moments away from the buzzing Camden Centre, with loads of free secure parking around the square on the weekends. It’s been a hub of activity since 1954 and now home to ‘I LIKE IT LIKE THAT’s salsa musical journeys.
A quality surround sound and room capacity of up to 450 guests, the McNamara Suite is the center’s hidden gem, a beautiful large event space boasting 13ft high ceilings, no pillars, clear lines of sight, 450 sq meters of space with integrated wooden dancefloor area, as well as large windows, allowing lots of natural daylight for our Matinee socials. This stunning room is also fully air-conditioned and has state-of-the-art audio visual capabilities.
Finally, at the heart of the London Irish Centre is the Hub bar and reception area, providing the warm welcome you would expect from any Irish venue. Ideal to unwind and have a drink / coffee or even a snack. Being the London Irish Centre there is also the largest selection of Irish Whiskeys and of course, the best Guinness in town.

The music behind our DJs:
Angus
Ace DJ, collector of Salsa Vinyl and the man behind Abanico Salsa, Angus has been collecting Salsa music in all formats for over 20 years and can be found on the decks regularly at Abanico Salsa parties & events (including Salsa on the Pier) and in guest slots around the country for other Salsa promoters, events & congresses.
As a DJ and dancer his first love is solid swinging Salsa and if it swings he will play it - no matter if it is old or new, rare or popular, fast or slow - if it gets the dancers up it’s in the bag!
Looking forward to loading up the record box and heading to the big smoke he will be packing some big guns, some slow burners, favourite floor fillers and a few rarities and surprises to keep the dance floor full.
