No, membership is not required to attend – the congress is open to everyone. However, SalsaNor members get a small perk: the first wave of registration opens exclusively to SalsaNor members a short time before it opens to the general public. In practice, this means members get first chance to buy passes (which can be crucial if the event sells out fast). If you’re not a member, you can still register once general sign-up opens.
Alternatively, you have the option to become a SalsaNor member (for about €10/year) when registering – the system allowed non-members to pay for membership and immediately use the member sign-up slot. Membership might also give you discounts to other SalsaNor events during the year, but it’s entirely up to you. In summary: you can attend without being a member, but joining SalsaNor can give you early access to tickets and other benefits.
