The City HOP
Vintage Party
Il Vintage Party of The City Hop is the beating heart of the entire event: a night where everything comes alive, everything connects, everything takes shape.
Swing, live music, social dance, shows and competition come together in a single evening open to everyone, even those who are not attending the workshop.
If you love dancing, the energy of big swing nights, and the magic that only happens when a community meets on the same dancefloor… this is your night. ❤️
The dancefloor will be set on fire by the extraordinary live band Henzapoppin’s Choo-Choo Train, arriving straight from Rome with an exceptional lineup:
Henzapoppin on vocals, Giuseppe Ricciardo on saxophone, Marco Cortese on guitar, Damiano Proietti on double bass, and Riccardo Colasante on drums.
A band among the most appreciated in the Roman swing scene, capable of creating authentic, powerful, and deeply danceable swing sound.
Get ready for an evening of unstoppable rhythm, groove that grips you, and pure swing energy, the kind that makes you dance until the very last note. 🎶🔥
During the night, there will also be the Mix & Match Competition, a real moment of challenge, connection, and adrenaline, where technique, musicality, and interpretation are the stars.
An intense, elegant, and engaging competition that brings the most vibrant and creative side of lindy hop to the dancefloor.
And then the shows: on stage, the guest teachers Alison Sanlaville, Issiaka Cissokho, Giulia Fantini, and Antonio McVillan will perform, giving you style, personality, and inspiration that ignite both eyes and heart.
Following them, the contagious energy of the Solo Jazz classes will take the stage, showcasing the work, passion, and fun experienced during the weekend.
The Vintage Party is live music, social dance, shows, competition, and community.
It is the moment when everything you have learned comes to life, when real connections are made, when you dance with strangers who after two songs feel like friends.
It is a night that vibrates, unites, and leaves a mark.
