What this template does

The La Calabaza dance is the dancing cat meme of autumn 2026: three AI kittens stand on their hind legs on a roadside at night and dance in sync to Pumpky's "La Calabaza".

What is the La Calabaza Dance trend, and where did it start?

"La calabaza" is Spanish for "the pumpkin". The song is "LA CALABAZA (TINIEBLA Edit)", a fast guaracha-style track by the independent producer Pumpky; its hook shouts "la calabaza" again and again.
