Description

Celebrate the festive season with The Swing Era at our annual Christmas Swing Dance! Whether you're a seasoned dancer or have never tried swing before, everyone is welcome.

We'll kick off the evening with a fun beginner taster lesson from about 3:10pm - 3:30pm before filling the dance floor with festive swing tunes, social dancing and plenty of Christmas cheer.

Dig out your favourite Christmas outfit—whether it's a classy festive look, a vintage holiday dress, a Christmas shirt, or the world's most outrageous Christmas jumper. Dressing up isn't essential, but it definitely adds to the fun!

Expect a warm, welcoming atmosphere, great music, friendly faces and an evening full of dancing, laughter and holiday spirit. Jump into the planned Speed Shim Sham contest also - just some fun to be had. :)

Bring your friends or come along solo—we'll make sure you feel right at home.

Festive outfit on. Dancing shoes on. Let's celebrate Christmas, Swing Era style!
