Few people throw a party like Mila Killa.

For the fourth anniversary of her “¡Samba!” party, the Tampa DJ brings breakers from Red Bull Dance Your Style into the event space at Hotel Haya.

That’s where she’ll go back-to-back with another local favorite (T. Couture) in between sets from Toronto DJ Babyvaye and Gainesville scene staple Jordie Ortiz (aka Oojordie), all playing an open-ish format rooted in sounds from Latin America, Africa, the Caribbean, and “everywhere in between.”

Tickets to see Mila Killa, T. Couture, Supernova, Oojordie, Ace, and Babyvaye at Hotel Haya in Ybor City on Friday, Aug. 14 are still available and start at $20.

Pitch in to help make the Tampa Bay Journalism Project a success.
