Looks like that is the standard going by the 2019 lineup, can't say it's somewhere I've ever been though.

I was there to see Eavis dancing...what more can anyone wish for....

It's worth visiting, you don't need to dance, just watch the others making a fool of themselves...

[Tommy Dickfingers]

What is the craic with this area? I don’t think anyone I’ve ever been with has ever gone inside. What exactly goes on in there?

[CaledonianGonzo]

Cimafunk is a booking that I'll be looking into very strongly

I did salsa dancing in 2019 off my mash at 1.30am....was funny!

I quite enjoy making a fool of myself 🙂 …

The excitement got to me I’m afraid

It’s next to the West Holts bar now IIRC so you can watch from the edges of the tent if you’re around that area. 

[Gilgamesh69]

Efests meet at Cimafunk anyone?

The announcement confirms it's still in West Holts. 

[WestCountryGirl]

Definitely going to get in there for a lesson this year. The hype is real!

[Avalon_Fields]

It's close enough to the Brothers bar for me to start there and by the time I head across WH to dance at Glasto Latino I'll be thinking I'm a fantastic dancer.

Sounds like they're staying in the W Holts field:

After the success of our move to the West Holts Field in 2019, Glasto Latino is back with a bang in 2022, once again offering our spicy recipe of night-time Latin fiestas and daytime dance classes.

Live bands include:

Thursday – Indira Román and Ají Pa’ Ti: one of the UK’s premier tropical bands, led by the Havana-born Indira’s soaring voice and powerful presence. Fresh and hot, sweet and spicy. Ají Pa’Ti means “Chilli for you”.

Friday – Cimafunk, Cuba’s latest sensation – “frenetic joy ride of freewheeling blasts of percussive funk intercut with pumped-up versions of classic Cuban riffs” –New York Times; “Cimafunk is the one, the next one”–George Clinton

Saturday – Three of the top names in Latin music in Europe come together in a special lineup for Glasto Latino – Edwin Sanz (percussion), Alex Wilson (piano) and Omar Puente (violin), together with a hand-picked orchestra. Expect fireworks!

Sunday – we are privileged to host Telmary, the Queen of Cuban Hip Hop, with her band HabanaSana. – rap, funk, jazz and soul on top of traditional Afro-Cuban rhythms.

I've been learning Spanish this year so looking forward to hearing some of these on my playlist and hopefully understanding the odd word here and there.

I usually spend a bit of time there, it's a great stop off after the main stages have closed, much more busy than during the day normally.

And they sell mojitos.  I'm not sure if they'll sell you anything else, tbh.

Last time I went (2017) there was an Argentinian food stall next to it with a huge Maradona picture and the most expensive choripanes I've even seen. I wonder if they will be there this time...

We did a daytime dance class in 2017 - great fun, recommended.
