* Changes are still possible
Friday 8 March 2024
Let’s start the weekend with a kick-ass night! We’ll make sure to create a welcoming and relaxing evening to get into the groove. A top notch live band, awesome company, good drinks and a ‘warm up’ welcome. What could anybody want more?

Saturday 9 March 2024
Saturday night we’ll bring glimpses of a blues ballroom. Dress up a bit sharper and make your grandma proud shining on that dance floor. For the early party people we have a very cool warm up surprise. In the main ballroom, our band will welcome you in style.
21:00 – 4:00 Doors
22:00 Live Music: TBA
DJs: TBA
Specials: Jam* and performances.
Location: Danspunt, Sint Salvatorstraat 18, 9000 Gent
*The Jam is a ‘competition’ format that will only take place if the energy of the night allows so. It will be a sharing circle. Anyone can jump in, in any constellation. Those who embody – both in the center as the circle itself – the qualities of blues dancing the most, take home the crown and the price for this format.
Sunday 10 March 2024
We have a reputation to keep going so you’d better keep your Sunday evening night and Monday morning free 😉 We’ll end the festival in absolute Juke Joint party fashion! Expect a crazy night of raw, sexy and wild blues. Or, do you feel more jazzy and do you love slowdrag and other more jazz inspired dancing? After the huge success of last year – we’ll have a second ballroom in a bar only 100m from Missy Sippy, where we’ll host a ‘calmer’ party.
Doors: 20:30, first set live music 21:00
Live Music: TBA
DJs: TBA
Specials: Performances
Location 1: Missy Sippy, Klein Turkije 16, 9000 Gent
Location 2: TBA
