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

Check which venue we're at before you leave home!
