8:00 PM

Beginner WCS or Country Swing Class

A beginner-friendly option for dancers who want a smoother start before the social opens. This class alternates between WCS and Country Swing each social.

8:00 PM

8:00 PM

Intermediate Country Swing

9:00 PM–12:00 AM

Two Socials Start at the Same Time

After class, the night opens into two social rooms with local DJs. West Coast Swing dancers stay on the WestieHive side, Country Swing dancers stay on the Neon Country side, and full-ticket dancers can move between both.


Two Socials. Two Vibes. One Address.
