Our

PARTIES

The heart of the Basel swing dance scene

Our Lindy Harbour parties are the magical place where everything comes together: new faces, old friends, captivating rhythms and that irresistible lightness of swing dancing. Every 2nd Sunday or the last friday/ saturday of the month.

OUR NEXT PARTY

Lindy Hop Party with Crash Course!

In the foyer of the Vorstadt Theater

Sat, 31 January 2026
Every last weekend of the month, we dance in the charming foyer of the Vorstadttheater. Plenty of space, a great floor, and true twenties vibes!

Join without any prior experience

Our parties start with a crash course. You’ll learn a few dance basics and meet other people who are also there for the first time. After just 30 minutes, you’ll be dancing along and feeling like you’re at a fun house party.

START 8:00 pm Crash Course // 8.30 pm Social Dance

SPECIAL Shim Sham Variations Single Class, 19.15 -20.30, Book Now!

(the class is at the same venue in a different room)

LOCATION Vorstadttheater, Allschwilerplatz 22, 4055 Basel

COST CHF 20 / CHF 16

Our pre-party class is here!

Learn solo jazz or a specific social dance theme in a separate room right before the party. The pre-party class is independent of the crash course – and as soon as the lesson ends, the party starts seamlessly. Perfect for learning something new and trying it out immediately on the dance floor.

 

The pre-party class is an optional extra! You can book the class through our booking platform!

"I can't dance" - Right here!

Do you think, "Everyone else can do this, but I can't"? We understand! That's why every one of our parties starts with a crash course for you and other newbies. Here, you'll learn a few basics in 30 minutes, completely unpressured and with a lot of humor. After the crash course, you can join in the dancing or just watch – whatever you feel comfortable with. Come along, with or without a partner.
