Note: The information on this webpage is provided mostly by local dancers, bands, and venues. This webpage is part of a larger website run by someone who it is focused on swing dancing in Boston, Massachusetts and is provided as a convenience to readers who might be interested in looking for possible dance venues in Missouri. However, I do not live there and do not have the time or money to call every venue regularly for updates (I don't make money off dancing). With that in mind, I suggest calling up the dance venues to confirm their dance events. Please write to dancenet@havetodance.com with any new information that you'd like to share and please review this website's policies before writing in. Note that venues are not very diligent about notifying me about stale information so *call ahead*.
