UWMBDA Dance Schedule
Attendance at social dances is limited to UW-System students, faculty, staff, and members of UWMBDA. If you are student, faculty, or staff, you do not have to be a member of the club to attend the dances. If you are not student, faculty, or staff, see our homepage on how to attend as a guest or become a member of the club.
Most dances are preceded by intermediate and beginner level lessons in a particular type of dance. The lesson is free for members and $5 for non-members.
After the lessons, we play general ballroom/latin/swing/nightclub music for the remainder of the evening. Unless otherwise noted for special events, admission for most dances is $2 for members and $5 for non-members.
