Back to Turisthytta - SWINGFOLKET: 16 August

Join us as we fill Café Turisthytta with the joy of dance, laughter, and a wonderful, welcoming atmosphere on Sunday, August 16!

Tonight, we take a step back in time to the atmosphere of the old Turisthytta, which for generations was the ultimate gathering place for everyone in Bodø. The most important thing was always simply to meet up, share stories, and have a great time together.

Now, we are teaming up with the wonderful people of Swingfolket Bodø to kickstart the dance season with a proper summer dance night. Usually, the crew at Swingfolket hosts weekly dance activities throughout the year, alongside courses, dance nights, and larger events. Tonight, they are bringing their great energy up to us and inviting everyone to hit the floor with music perfect for both swing, west coast swing, and more.

You do not need to be an experienced dancer to join in. Whether you want to spin around the dance floor, brush up on old skills, or just enjoy a cup of coffee and watch the room light up, you are heartily welcome. Café Turisthytta will be open, so it will be fully possible to buy drinks, snacks, and light bites throughout the evening.

Bring your neighbor, a friend, or just come exactly as you are. We can't wait!

Time: 7PM-9PM
