FAQ
Havana Nights New York FAQ
Straight answers on packages, logistics, bar service and what to expect.
New York questions
Can you work with union venues and freight schedules in Manhattan?
Yes. We plan load-in windows, freight elevator bookings and any venue labor requirements during planning so production runs on time.
Can the band play a Palladium-era mambo set?
Yes. Ask for a classic mambo and cha-cha-chá set in your quote and we will confirm repertoire with the bandleader.
How early do New York holiday parties book?
December dates book early. Many planners lock entertainment by early fall.
General questions
Do you serve alcohol?
No. We do not provide alcohol service. We work with your venue's bar team, who can run a mojito and Cuba libre menu alongside our entertainment.
Are the casino tables real gambling?
No. Casino tables use play money only and are for entertainment. Where available, they are provided through our partner Vegas Night Co.
What does 'starting at' include?
Starting prices reflect the core package elements listed. Final pricing depends on date, duration, guest count, venue logistics and any additions. Request a quote for an exact figure.
Is the theme formal enough for a corporate or black-tie event?
Yes. Havana Nights is one of the most popular gala and fundraiser themes because it is festive without being cartoonish. We keep decor elegant: palms, gold, linen and warm light.
Do guests need to know how to dance?
Not at all. Our dancers teach a short beginner salsa lesson designed for mixed groups, then lead the floor so nobody feels on the spot.
How far ahead should we book?
Three to six months is typical. Peak gala months and December holiday party dates fill earlier.
