Havana, Cuba

Music is Havana's operating system: son bands in every bar rotation, rumba in the courtyards, salsa orchestras that make sitting down feel rude. The essential night is Fábrica de Arte Cubano — a repurposed cooking-oil factory mixing galleries, concerts and dance floors, open Thursday to Sunday only, so plan the week around it. Casa de la Música in Miramar does the big salsa acts; the second, later set is always the one.
