ABOUT
FESTIVAL

The culmination of the annual work of the Lindy Szau Association is the organization of the largest swing festival in Wrocław -
Lindy Szau's Birthday Jam.
It takes place every year on the last weekend of January and is of particular importance because it is also a jubilee of the Wrocław swing scene. From year to year, this festival is getting bigger and more and more dancers from all over the world have a chance to get to know the hospitality of our community. Since this is a birthday, of course there is also a birthday cake with world famous birthday jam around the cake! No matter if you dance for a long time or a short time, in Wrocław you will feel like at home! Join us and celebrate another birthday with us!
