ISLA DE SALSA 2025

ISLA DE SALSA enters a new phase.

Feel the harmony of the world’s heartbeat!


Leave the city. Find the world beat.
When cultures connect, “Matsuri” magic sparks.

When you think of summer in Fukuoka, the first thing that comes to mind is Isla de Salsa, right?
When people hear “Isla de Salsa,” many immediately think of Latin music and dance. But the inspiration goes further: it was born from the vibrant mix that salsa represents—both the dance, full of rhythm and passion, and the sauce, where diverse ingredients blend to create something unique.
This festival celebrates exactly that: fusion and cultural encounters. Since its very first edition, it has brought together artists and audiences from around the world, creating unforgettable moments of discovery and connection.

And in 2025, for its 26th edition, Isla de Salsa returns to its original spirit of “mixing to create” and takes it one step further: everyone who joins becomes an essential part of the festival—like a spice in our collective salsa.
This festival wouldn’t be complete without you — you're an essential part of the mix.

The stage: Nokonoshima Beach, just 10 minutes by ferry from Fukuoka City. Palm trees, sand, and an irresistible tropical vibe. Music from around the globe, dances that move you, flavors that awaken the senses, art—and most of all, people eager to connect.

Let yourself be carried away by the rhythms of the world.
Dance, chat, savor. Cross cultural borders without leaving the sand.
Isla de Salsa is a unique festival that distills the best of human connection: creativity, freedom, and joy.
And you? What spice will you bring to our salsa this year?

"World Beat Matsuri"
In Japan, there is an ancient belief that gods dwell in all things in nature — a worldview known as Yaoyorozu no Kami (“eight million gods”).
Matsuri (Japanese festivals) are not simply entertainment; they are moments to give thanks to nature and the gods, to share hopes and joys.They are acts that help nurture and enrich the community.
We chose the Japanese word Matsuri as a subtitle because we feel a deep connection with the spirit of Japanese festivals.
We hope that Isla de Salsa becomes a place where people and cultures connect — and where something new can be born.
