Get ready for another hot night in Puerto Vallarta on February 13th from 5:00 to 7:00 pm as the Paradise Community Centre hosts Hot Love - salsa y salsa!

Come vote for your favorite salsa! Both local restaurants and amateurs are waiting to showcase their hot, mild, and unique salsas while vying for the title of "Best Salsa Sauce in PV"; salsa dance lessons by Felipe Reyes and Marcella Castellanos with music by Los Bambinos; and, just in case things get too hot to handle, our own Bomberos will be at the ready to put out any fires!

We are pleased that Gary R. Beck, Heather Wilson and Nicole Martin have agreed to be our celebrity judges for this contest, which provides salsa lovers a great chance to taste salsas from many participants, try on your dancing shoes and support our local community.

Admission is $100 pesos in advance ($150 pesos at the door) and includes tortilla chips for tasting, 2 beers or margaritas as well as numerous door prizes to be won! We will also be holding a 50/50 drawing with you splitting the bounty raised with those separate raffle tickets.

Tickets to Hot Love - salsa y salsa! will be available at participating restaurants throughout the city as well as at the Saturday Old Town Farmers' Market.

Proceeds from this first-time event are for the continuation of the Paradise Community Center’s charitable works in reaching out to those in and around Puerto Vallarta. Located on PV's South side at Calle Pulpito #127 across the street from Coco’s Kitchen, the Community Center also houses our Worship in Paradise Church, the Farmers' Market on Saturdays, and is also open to host your event.

If you would like further information, submit your salsa sauce in the competition, or schedule your own event at the Center, please contact pattyslatida(at)aol.com.

A special Thank you! goes out to Crate Interiors for graciously sponsoring this event.
