Exchange Schedule 2016 English

For the third year in a row MAD for Swing will organize its very
own Madrid Lindy Exchange. Madrid will open its doors to lindy
hoppers from all around the globe for three days, filling the city
with music and dance.
It is a great opportunity to come and meet a swing community that
has stayed close together since the very beginning, achieving a
very much incredible atmosphere. It is the very people in the city
and the swing community that get together to create this event.
Everyone is invited: swing academies, dancers and musicians alike!
You will get to experience the artistic value and the wealth of the
swing in Madrid.
A weekend full of live music, night parties in local venues, outdoor
dancing in special places of the city -again with live music!-, a
‘tapas’ tour with local dancers, a Jack & Jill competition… and the
people in Madrid to welcome you with open arms!
WELCOME!!
