First Sundays

Experience an electrifying live set from Yeny Valdés & TeamBahia, bringing the vibrant sounds of Cuba to life through a high-energy mix of timba, salsa, son, and tropical fusion. Led by the powerhouse vocals of Yeny Valdés—former lead singer of the legendary Los Van Van—the group lights up the stage with soul, rhythm, and irresistible joy. Rooted in tradition and reimagined through a modern lens, their performance invites everyone to dance, celebrate, and feel the heartbeat of the Caribbean.
