An evening of outdoor West Coast Swing dancing held under the Gazebo on the Halifax Waterfront, open to all skill levels.
West Coast Swing is coming to the Waterfront Gazebo on Friday, August 21, from 7:00 to 9:00 pm. It's an outdoor dancing session right on the Halifax Waterfront, and it's open to everyone, so you don't need to know the dance to get involved.
The Gazebo puts you in a great spot to watch the harbour while you're there. You'll have a view of George's Island and the ships, sailboats and kayaks that pass by, with people fishing off the dock nearby. It's a very Halifax scene—the water, the boats, and the city humming around you—and the dancing happens right in the middle of it.
One of the best things about this one is that it's not just for the dancers. If you've never heard of West Coast Swing or have no idea how to do it, you're still welcome. You can just hang out and enjoy the music, watch the dancing, and spend the evening in good company without feeling like you're missing a trick. It's as much about the atmosphere as it is about the dance.
