Updates for 2024 edition

Here's what to expect this year in Athens!

Instructors

We’re super proud to be bringing to Athens for the first time a couple all the way from the USA.

We met Adam & Krystal at Spoonful and immediately connected! Their dancing, teaching skills and values are so aligned with our own that we immediately knew we wanted them in Athens! 

Along with them, our years long friend Bibi with Mike and some upcoming, very talented dancers & teachers such as Isabelle & Ewan, Roland & Biancamaria.

We won’t stop there, we’re still in talks with other teachers that will be announced soon!

Classes

Weekend classes

4 levels of partnered classes plus a solo track [level descriptions]

Masterclasses

(Friday afternoon & evening | booked separately from main classes)

Last year we introduced this concept for people that want to be challenged in a new way or that only want to have just a few classes and not the full pass. It was a great success!

We have a list of great suggestions from the teachers (and it will be hard to pick) and will announce them before registrations.

Just make sure you get to Athens by Friday early afternoon so you don’t miss them.

A-MA-ZING music!

We’ve been telling people Athens has an electrifying Blues scene!

Your feedback each year proves us right!

So expect a spectacular comeback from some of our local bands (including our house-band, formed just for our festival, the Athens Blues Orchestra), some talent from abroad (t.b.a.) and a few of the best local and guest DJs!

Extra days

You might have noticed we’re including two extra days this year, making it a 5 day event!

That’s because we’re officially including

Thursday night Greek dinner

A delicious add-on to our festival at one of our favorite restaurants in Athens!

Just ask those who were there last year!

Monday cool-down party 

An impromptu addition from last year turned out to be a great way to ease back into «reality» after a crazy weekend!

A relaxed Blues & Balboa party (as it was originally an idea from our local Balboa teachers) on Monday night that you asked us to repeat!

If you can stay an extra night in Athens, it’s definitely worth it!


Venues

Last year we finally found the best venues for this event - so we’re sticking with them!

What are you waiting for?

We’re working hard to open registrations by end of May - if not, early June for sure!
