Stockholm Blues Fest 2024:The Retreat
A warm WELCOME to Swedish Swing Society’s 13th annual Stockholm Blues Fest!
Thursday 6 June - Sunday 9 June
An extra long weekend of inspiring workshops with international blues teachers, late night blues parties, and plenty of time for connection on and off the dance floor!
It's time to return for the 7th time to the beautiful Tvetagården hostel on the outskirts of Stockholm.
Forget about the outside world for a while, and dance into the night!
TEACHERS
We are happy to present:
Leanna Rozen & Gašper Hrovat
Hamed Jenabi
BANDS
TBD, expect 3 nights of live music
CLASSES
Eight hours of blues classes, and open space sessions, spread between Friday and Sunday.
This workshop is not suitable for beginners: participants should have previous blues dance experience. There are no level divisions at the camp, instead the classes follow the “choose your own adventure” format. Before each class, you will get a short intro to the two lessons on offer, and it’s up to you to choose the one that sounds best for you.
Leads and follows
When you sign up to the event you will be asked to choose a dance role. Pick the one you social dance the most. This is so we can ensure a decent balance on the dance floor in the evenings. You are free to dance whichever role you want during our classes.
BLUES PARTIES
Thursday, Friday and Saturday evenings, all nights with great live musicians, all with dancing until late!
Afterparty in the city on Sunday
