KAFANA BALKAN CELEBRATES 19 YEARS WITH AN ALL-STAR ANNIVERSARY PARTY AT THE RICKSHAW STOP 

San Francisco, CA — Kafana Balkan returns to Rickshaw Stop on Saturday, February 21 for a 19th Anniversary Party—a full-throttle, sweat-soaked Balkan brass blowout built for the dance floor. The night features virtuoso clarinetist Ismail Lumanovski with the Bay Area’s own Inspector Gadje Balkan Brass Band, releasing their first collaborative single called "Tuk Tuk" plus Belly dance by internationally acclaimed performer Jill Parker, and all-night energy from DJ Željko—with special guests throughout.

If you’ve been to Kafana Balkan before, you already know: this isn’t a concert you politely watch—it’s a room that erupts. Expect roaring brass, unstoppable rhythms, and the kind of communal, ecstatic dancing that lingers in your body for days.
