We are sorry to inform you that at this time there will be no more THURSDAY SALSA @ Blue Dragonfly Lounge.

Although some say the recession is coming to an end, it is still affecting business left and right and unfortunately Blue Dragonfly has been the next victim of the recession.

DJ Armando and Sabor Latino are already looking for new venues and we plan on starting up a new place in the next couple of weeks.

Stay tuned for more information.
