Shake it up: Bars with dance floors in Calgary

Put on your best dancing shoes and head downtown to Rio, the place to be for novice and experienced Latin dancers. This spot features a small dance floor, but the energy is always on high with a glistening, Latin-music-loving crowd that includes some serious bachata dancers (derived from the Cuban bolero). Weekly dance nights include salsa Thursdays, Latino DJ Fridays and a Latino band performs live every Saturday. To help put you in the dancing mood, this spot offers weekday happy hours from 3 pm to 7 pm.
