Get found. Fill the room.
Skip the studio software.
List + built-in discovery for venues that host social dance events. Free to list, set a door cover, and get found by dancers nearby. We don't manage classes. That part is your job, not ours. Online ticketing is live; the analytics dashboard is still on the way.
What Bailar is. And what it isn't. For venues.
Bailar isn't class management software. We don't track who's enrolled in your Tuesday salsa class, generate instructor pay stubs, or schedule rehearsal time. If that's what you need, you want MindBody, Glofox, or Mariana Tek. We won't pretend otherwise.
Bailar is an event listing with built-in discovery. You list your social events for free, set a door cover, and we put them in front of dancers actively looking for somewhere to dance tonight, minus the studio admin scaffolding nobody asked for.
Many venues host classes during their events. A 30-minute beginner lesson before a Saturday social, a workshop tacked onto a festival weekend. Those classes aren't run through Bailar; they're part of the event. We don't track who attended the lesson, who passed, or what their progress is. The class is the venue's. The listing is ours. Everyone keeps their own job.
Listing + discovery, in one place
Free event listing
Publish your social events in minutes: name, date, dance styles, description, and a flyer. Or scan a flyer and let Bia fill in the details. No fee to list.
Set a door cover
Add a single cover charge so dancers know the price before they arrive, or leave it blank for a free night. Guests pay at the door; you keep every dollar.
Discovery, not just a calendar
Your events surface on city pages, in the Bailar app feed, and as geo push to nearby dancers. Most event sites wait for you to bring the audience. We bring dancers to you.
Door check-in
Dancers RSVP from the app so you know who's coming, and you can check guests in at the door the night of the event.
Payout onboarding for paid ticketing
Connect a Stripe account from your account settings to sell tickets online. Payouts go straight to your own Stripe.
Paid online ticketing
Sell tickets online with multiple tiers (Early Bird, General, VIP), each with its own quantity, price, and on-sale window. Payouts go straight to your Stripe account.
Discount codes
Percent-off or flat-amount codes you can set per event, for early-bird promos and partner deals.
Refund windows
Choose a refund window per event: 1h, 24h, 48h, a week, or no refunds. Buyers self-refund inside the window; you can always override from Stripe.
What we don't do
Class rosters, instructor pay, student progress, certificates, dress-code enforcement, your liability waiver. Those stay with you. If you also teach classes on a regular schedule, see /for-studios.

On the way for venues
This is in active development. We'd rather show you what's real today than sell you a feature you can't use yet. When it ships, it lights up right in your event tools.

The questions venues actually ask
Do I need to be a dance studio to use this?
No. This is for venues that host social dance events: clubs, bars with dance nights, lounges, ballrooms, hotels, festival grounds, lofts. If you also teach classes on a regular schedule, you probably want /for-studios (same listing engine, plus class roster + instructor management).
Is it really free to list?
Yes. Listing your events, the discovery surface, RSVPs, and door check-in are all free, with no monthly subscription. You set a single door cover and guests pay at the door. Bailar takes no cut of door cash. Paid online ticketing is live at a flat 2.5% host commission, with payouts straight to your own Stripe account; buyers pay card processing on top.
Do you take a cut of classes that happen during my event?
No. We don't track class attendance, instructor pay, or student progress. If your Saturday social includes a 30-minute beginner lesson before the DJ starts, that lesson is part of the event. It's between you, your instructor, and the dancer. Bailar lists the event; what happens once the dancer walks in is your call. Social classes are never run through Bailar.
Where do my events show up?
On the Bailar mobile app feed, on the city pages at bailar.site/events/[city], in the geo-aware push to nearby dancers, and on your venue's profile. Linkable URLs work everywhere: your Instagram bio, your own site, posters with QR codes, your existing email blast.
What if I'm already on Eventbrite?
Run them in parallel. Bailar is a discovery channel for the dance scene, not a replacement for your existing pipe. Many venues post the same event to both and let dancers find them wherever they're looking. Bailar puts you in front of dancers actively searching for somewhere to dance; that's the audience most general event sites don't have.
What about selling tickets online?
It's live. Paid online ticketing (multi-tier tickets, discount codes, refund windows, and Stripe Connect payouts) is available in your event tools today. It carries a flat 2.5% host commission: you keep 97.5% of each ticket and buyers pay card processing on top. Connect your Stripe account from account settings and sell tickets for your next event.
