Casa de la Trova

Trinidad's oldest traditional music bar, where bands play son and bolero in a courtyard. The atmosphere feels more authentically local than the Casa de la Música.

Casa de la Trova sits on a small square east of the Casa de la Música. It is one of the traditional music venues found throughout Cuba, and the Trinidad branch is known for its veteran local musicians and salsa dancers. Bands play son, bolero, and trova folk songs in the courtyard of a colonial house, both day and night, and the crowd is largely local. Cover charges are low (check on site), and drinks cost extra. The best time is after 9 p.m.
