Britain's What's On Event Guide
A Night at the Woodside
Ladies and gentlemen, dancers and dreamers, music lovers and night owls—get ready, because Hitchin’s one and only swing dance nightclub is making its grand return to Woodside Hall this month, and it’s going to be bigger, brighter, and more dazzling than ever before.
This isn’t just another night out. This is a celebration of rhythm, glamour, and community. It’s a chance to step back in time to the golden age of swing while also embracing the fresh, modern beats that keep the genre alive today. Whether you’re a seasoned Lindy Hopper, a jitterbug enthusiast, or someone who simply loves tapping your toes to irresistible melodies, this event is designed for you.
What makes swing nights so magical? It’s the music. The heartbeat of the evening will be an eclectic mix of swing tunes that span decades and styles:
Vintage classics from the Andrews Sisters, Benny Goodman, and Count Basie will transport you straight to the smoky dance halls of the 1940s.
Modern swing-inspired pop will keep things fresh, proving that swing isn’t just history—it’s alive, evolving, and ready to surprise you.
Expect toe-tapping rhythms, soaring harmonies, and brass sections that practically demand you get up and dance.
Every track is chosen to keep the energy flowing, the smiles wide, and the dance floor buzzing.
