BANDS AND VENUES
For 2025, we have worked very hard to bring you better venues, great bands, and a great vibe all around. To do so, we have managed to secure venues in the city centre all weekend long, so no need to travel across the Lake, or book an Uber for those staying in the city.
Venue: Saint Malo, Rito, Level 2 (lift access), 21 London Circuit, Canberra ACT 2601
Time: 6pm - midnight
Band: Andrew Garton & his Pantheon of Swing (Brisbane)
Friday 4 april 2025
Join us at upstairs at Saint Malo for our introductory social night.
Located right in the middle of the city, Saint Malo is an amazing Spanish style restaurant with an incredibly function space on level 2.
With 2 separate areas (dancing and hanging out), lift access, and bar on site, we are really looking forward to spending an evening dancing on their beautiful timber floor and catching up with friends. Menu and details available here: Saint Malo
Saturday 5 april 2025
Venue: Louie Louie - Upstairs Verity Lane, 50 Northbourne Avenue, Canberra City
Time: 7.30pm - midnight
Band: Andrew Garton & his Pantheon of Swing (Brisbane)
Overlooking Northbourne Avenue, the old "Private Bin" nightclub has a rich history within the walls, and over 100 gins on the wall!
Louie Louie offers drinks on site so no BYO. We'll be able to dance to midnight and move on next door to Latin Dance Canberra for another 3 hours of dancing.
Sunday 6 april 2025
FINAl party!
Venue: Latin Dance Canberra - Above King O’Malleys, Level 2/131 City Walk, Canberra ACT 2601
Large dance studio with rooftop area too
Time: 6.30pm - late
Music: Andrew Dickeson’s Blue Rhythm Band (Sydney)
We are thrilled to be able to use Latin Dance Canberra this year for our final party.
As a fully fitted dance studio, you can be sure this place will meet all dancers’ requirements. The whole studio will be booked out for our final party of the weekend: one large studio, one adjacent smaller studio where you can all sit down and chill while the music is playing, and also an rooftop terrace aka additional dance space! Are we ready to say goodbye to all our friends and party the night away?
