Swing Dance Night at Watts hall with The Ragtime Destroyers
Event Date
Saturday, May 30, 2026 - 07:00 pm to 09:30 pm
The Ragtime Destroyers bring their New Orleans inspired sound to Watts Hall for a swing dance party, May 30, from 7 - 9:30 p.m., at Watts Hall, 174 Main St., Thomaston.
"A familiar favorite in the Portland scene, the Ragtime Destroyers are known for their pop-up swing sessions in the park," said a Watts Hall news release. "Their music pulls from the 1920s and 30s, blending classic jazz with jug band spirit in a way that feels lively, loose, and made for dancing. It is the kind of music that gets your feet moving whether you planned to dance or not."
Want to brush up on your moves before the music starts? Join Alaina Zyhowski for an optional beginner-friendly swing dance lesson from 6:15 to 6:45 p.m. No experience or partner is necessary, and the lesson is designed to get everyone feeling comfortable and ready to dance.
The event is recommended for ages 18 and up. A cash bar will be provided by On The Rocks, and light concessions including popcorn, chips, and cookies will be available for purchase.
