What is a Lindy Exchange?
A Lindy Exchange is a gathering organised by a Lindy Hop scene in one city for a few days in order to invite people from other places to experience the city’s swing venues and bands, and generally to provide a way for visitors and locals to dance together.
In Cambridge our exchange is small and friendly; we hope that by the end not only will you be danced out and eaten a huge pile of cake but also have made a whole bunch of new friends.
Who can be involved?
Anyone who wants! The exchange is for all Lindy Hoppers, wherever you’re from, however long you’ve been dancing for. We are especially interested in hearing from local dancers who can offer a bit of spare room to host visitors for a few nights.
What about registrations?
Registrations will be opening very soon. We have tried our very best to make the event as cheap as we possibly can, CLX is not run for profit. As a result, we think most people will probably get a pass for the whole weekend, but you will also be able to come to just the Saturday or Sunday dances by booking tickets in advance (email info @cambridgelindyexchange.co.uk for more details). Prices for individual events will be determined closer to the date, but you can rest assured that the full pass is the best way to go for value, and it is unlikely that extra tickets will be available for the Friday night dance due to space limitations. Since this is an event sponsored by the Cambridge Lindy Hoppers society, members receive a discount when registering for a full pass.
