Anytime that Democracy and Communism clashed, it was a confrontation. Some were done in secret, and some were highly visible. Some used only words, and some used weapons. Some were bloodless, and some were bloody. The Berlin Airlift, Cuban Missile Crisis, Korean conflict, and the wars in Vietnam, Nicaragua, and Afghanistan were visible example of Cold War confrontations.

Where did the nuclear confrontation happen during the cold war?

There were no direct nuclear confrontations during the Cold War.The Cuban Missile Crisis was a conventional confrontation caused by the threat of nuclear war, and the stand-off was over the shipping and delivery of nuclear weapons, but no nuclear weapons were ever pointed at either side (any more or less than they were during the entire Cold War).It happened because of nuclear weapons, but the stand-off was entirely conventional.Without the actual use-in-conflict of a nuclear weapon, all confrontations remain conventional, not nuclear.However, if you were asked this question by a teacher, give them the answer they were digging for by saying 'Cuba' and avoid the hassle, but the question is flawed. Asking where something happened when it never happened anywhere is bad educating.
