Rhythm Vibes Marathon Experience is a social-first bachata marathon held at Hotel Isla de la Garena in Alcala de Henares, just east of Madrid. The official site sets it apart from conventional congresses: there are no workshops, no shows and no cameras, with the focus placed entirely on more than 12 hours of social dancing each day, pool parties and coaching sessions aimed at connection and presence. On two of the three nights phones are banned to keep dancers grounded in the moment. The second edition runs from 21 to 24 August 2026. The official site lists a Full Pass at 80 euros covering three nights of parties until 3am, three pool parties and all coaching sessions, with a separate full-board hotel option at the four-star venue at 244 euros per person.
