18th-19th July: Bristol Harbour Festival
Bristol's biggest public event of the year - it's been confirmed that we'll have a swing dance slot as usual but we don't know yet which days/times. If you know of any other swing dance / swing bands over the weekend please let us know so we can do out best to avoid clashes.
24th-26th July: Swing Showcase Weekend
We're very excited about this but still working on the final details. What we know so far:
Daytimes - Workshops focused mainly on performance skills
Saturday night - Performance Showcase event organised by Gabriella & Ed. Most of our classes over the preceding months will work towards performances on this night.
Sunday afternoon/evening - A mammoth summer party in the newly refurbished St Michael's on the Mount Without: restoration is currently part way through but it is going to look spectacular!
