30th annual free outdoor dancing event in a park along the waterfront in Brighton Beach, Brooklyn. Free outdoors event.  This is the 30th annual summer concert series, put on by State Senator Marty Markowitz, features 7 different Thursday nights with bands playing all kinds of music, one of which is salsa. Held at Asser Levy Seaside Park, where West 5th Street, Surf Avenue, Ocean Parkway and Seabreeze Avenue all come together in Brighton Beach, Brooklyn, across the street from the New York Aquarium, just opposite the Boardwalk along the beach.  The park itself is all grass and dirt, and a dance floor is set up to the side of the stage.  People also dance on the Boardwalk where the music can still be heard, but the artists cannot really be seen up-close.  People bring  their beach chairs (or a limited number can be rented for $5) and coolers and have their dinner right before the concerts start.  The younger crowd just shows up and perches on the fence.  The event usually lasts until around midnight. 

Salsa plus a little cha cha, and some bachata & merengue played by salsa bands. Absolutely free and you can wear what ever you want. Mixed crowd of the general public.  Probably very few On 2, so you may want to bring an On 2 partner or group.
