Hop The Hall
Hop the Hall
Hop the Hall is our monthly social dance which is held on the first Friday of every month.
It is an opportunity for Lindy Hoppers to get together in Oxford to dance and chat. If you’re new to social dancing, this is the perfect place to get out on the floor in a relaxed atmosphere or listen to some great tunes played by our local DJs and occasional live bands. Informal and fun, with a great floor. Feel free to bring a bottle but please be considerate to fellow dancers.
Hop the Hall LIVE: Every October we organise an event with live music and a taster class. This usually takes place in a different venue so please check under the Events & Workshops tab above for the latest info. Click here for the October 2026 edition.
