Dancing

The joint will be jumping with dancing and demonstrations throughout the day. We have two outdoor dance floors by the main stage for all you jive bunnies and daddy cools. No matter if you're a beginner, starter or once a year dancer, everyone gets up for a boogie on the Rendezvous dance floor! There is a special dance competition for dancers of all abilities, so come and join in and maybe win a prize. Don't miss the dancing demo by the Legends Rock & Roll Club and another by "Club Slick" from the Down Syndrome Society.
