1. TOP 10 swing dance camps in the UK

2. Introduction
In this presentation you will discover the top 10 swing dancing camps in the UK.
Please note that I do not have extensive knowledge or experience of all the camps
in the UK to make a proper judgement, therefore, this is only my personal opinion.
If your organised camp is not included in this list, chances are, I have not been
there before. To avoid this you can always invite me to try your camp out and
review it on my blog.
Furthermore to avoid any arguments regarding which camp is better than the
other, I will list all the camps in alphabetical order. I did not include one-day
festivals or exchanges, only proper swing dance camps.
Without further ado, let’s begin!

6. Goodnight Sweetheart
An amazing weekend in Hertfordshire with
great teachers and amazing socials for
Valentine’s day.
When: February, each year
Location: Watford, Hertfordshire, UK
Experience: I went to GNSH in 2015 and I
had a fabulous time. I learned quite a lot but
this camp is not as big as it used to be mainly
due to location change (from Hertford to
Watford). I enjoyed it nevertheless.

7. Hullzapoppin’
Very relaxing but at the same time quite
intense weekend in Hull. Lovely and friendly
community that welcomes everybody, this is
a must before summer camps!
When: May, every year
Location: Kingston upon Hull, Yorkshire, UK
Experience: I went there in 2014 when they
were based in the massive Endsleigh Mercy
centre – I would get outside during launch
break to chill. Great classes and socials, truly
amazing weekend.

8. London Swing Festival
One of the largest European camps in the
capital of England – London. Top
international teachers with great and
intensive classes followed by social dancing
to live bands. Need I say more?
When: May, every year
Location: London, United Kingdom
Experience: I went in 2014 and 2015. In the
latter year I went only for social dancing
which was great. I wish I had taken classes
also. They were impressive I heard!

Great weekend with not too large crowd of
great dancers. You get 2 days of amazing

hall for your swing outs.

Experience: I went there in 2014 and it was
my 4th big event and I had a real blast. They

awesome and friendly community in South
of England.

University of Swing is a lovely weekend with

why not explore the beautiful city?

phenomenal and very friendly. I couldn’t
agree more as I know a few dancers from

As mentioned earlier, this is personal opinion of mine. I also listed this
in alphabetical order to avoid arguments like “No, this camp is better
than that camp” and so on.
