Friday Night Swing
Friday Night Swing is a monthly swing dance event held in the Carrillo Ballroom at the Carrillo Recreation Center, bringing an evening of live music, dancing, and prizes to Downtown Santa Barbara. The unique cantilevered floor of the Carrillo Ballroom flexes under every step, making it a fun and easy dance experience for all skill levels.
All skill levels and abilities are welcome! Every event begins at 7:30 p.m. with beginner and intermediate swing dance lessons before a band takes the stage for social dancing from 8:30 p.m. to 11:30 p.m. Each month brings a new band, with music ranging from jazz and jive to blues and rockabilly.
Admission is $20 cash at the door, and dance lessons are included.
Friday Night Swing is hosted in partnership with Sylvia Sykes and the Santa Barbara Swing Dance Committee.
