Our dance parties are heaps of fun and a great way to spend an evening with 80 - 120 people turning up during the course of the night.

  • Meet and dance with dancers from our class nights
  • Come on your own, with a partner or with friends
  • Everybody welcome

Doors open from 7.45pm and we begin with a 15 minute ice-breaker class at 8pm and then it's social dancing for the rest of the evening.

Tea, coffee and yummy cake/slice provided ☕ 🎂

Dance Parties

What Do I Wear?

Sometimes there may be a theme and some people like to dress up according to the theme which can be great fun and entertaining! Otherwise come along in whatever you're comfortable in.

Music

If there's a theme then the playlist will often reflect that theme whether it's 80's, R&B, Hallowe'en, Pirates etc. We still aim to have some variety if there is a theme.

Otherwise parties will have a wide range of music that gives Modern Jive it's appeal - you can dance to anything!

Most of our parties are held at:

  • C3 Urban Oasis, Shirley
  • Canterbury Caledonian Society, Wigram
