UPDATE:
Dance passes, Party Passes, and Full Weekend Dance Passes for workshops and nightly events can be purchased continuously all the way from now until at the door. All Inclusive passes that include food are no longer available.
The best news yet- our most cost-effective and greatest-value entry pass is ALL INCLUSIVE so whether you live far away, are traveling in for the event, or are just too dang tired to drive home after a night of dancing, you have a place to eat and sleep without having to ever leave the venue. This is especially helpful as there are very few, if any, hotels and restaurants within a close vicinity of our event location. Even the locals will be lodging with us to make the most of their weekend!!
The all inclusive pass will include...
- Fri. Night Class & Social Party (Attire Theme: Dirty Dancing!)
- Saturday's full day of workshops
- Sat. Night Social Party (Attire Theme: A Black and White Affair)
- Every After Party
- Friday Dinner
- Saturday Breakfast and Lunch
- Saturday Dinner & Dessert
- Bonfire & S'mores
- Pool Party
- Entry to Performances
- Two nights lodging (affordable hostel-style or private room options)
- Sunday Farewell Party
- Sunday Swing & Country Night (3 workshops + line dancing party)
Beginner Intensive Pass available for those who need the basics.
