The "Longest Rumba in the World" will be one of the most outstanding events of Cubadisco 2008 International Fair, to run from May 17-25.
This Cubadisco will also honor two of the greatest Cuban drummers, the late Chano Pozo and Tata Güines.
Rumba, of African origin, is sung and danced accompanied by drums or wooden boxes and keys. It is a mainstay of Cuban carnivals as well.
