Who's Who
Costa Rica in the UK
We are Costa Rica in the UK, a cultural community group that celebrates our roots through dancing, music and food here in the UK. Growing up in Costa Rica, the unique dance and marimba sound passed down through generations is a big part of our heritage. Living in London, we missed dancing, so we formed our group to share our culture with others. We are very proud to perform at the Greenwich Festival – can’t wait to see you there!
