All Turnverein Events Canceled Until Further Notice

At 7am on Wednesday, August 19, an electrical fire started at the Turn. No one was injured, and the worst of the damage was limited to the registration desk and the boardroom. Assessment and cleanup are underway.

Friday, August 21 Changes

The Hop is canceled

The Turn is such an incredibly important part of Denver’s dance community. We are so lucky to have such a beautiful dance floor. A huge shoutout and thank you goes to the building manager, Tarasa Harlow, for working overtime while things get sorted out.

ℹ️ How To Add Things To The Calendar

See something that isn't here, but should be? Here's how to add it:

A Google calendar or ICS feed (best for organizations with lots of events)
A calendar invite (best for recurring events, ad-hoc events)
A Facebook event (invite Kay Wilcox and/or Denver Lindy Cal FB Page, best for ad-hoc events)

This process was developed in collaboration with community organizations. Denver Lindy Cal aims to ensure sustainability and accuracy by working with organizers' existing processes. There's no AI involved.

🗓️ Monthly Highlights Sources

I aim for about 5-7 key events relevant to dancers each month. I pay special attention to live music events, local festivals, and anything exciting and out of the ordinary. I love getting recommendations for what to include! I generally try to get these posted towards the end of every month.
