AB INTERNATIONAL CONGRESS [Madrid] by Sensual Madness

We’re building more than a festival — we’re creating a place where people don’t just share dances, but build real friendships, real memories, and a real community. Here, connection comes first. We believe the best moments happen not just on the dance floor, but in the conversations, the laughter, and the lifelong bonds that follow. This is where real connections start, unforgettable memories are made, and the experience stays with you long after the music ends. The festival is built by dancers, for dancers. Join us where dance meets real life — where you come for the music, but stay for the people.

After an unforgettable 1st edition, we are back in 2026 with an even BIGGER line-up! If you missed the event in 2025, you have to be at the 2nd edition in 2026. We will be back with our signature neon party, crazy themed nights and more!

The event will kick off from 4pm on Friday 27th March - 5am on Monday 30th March.

For this edition, we have listened to your feedback and promise to have daily socials on Saturday and Sunday, workshops in Spanish and English and a BRAND NEW World Championship!! We will also have clearly marked hours with the artists during the social dance on our schedules along with a published DJ Schedule so you always know who is playing in what room!
