Join the City of Campbell River downtown on Shoppers Row for Swing Night this coming Wednesday, August 20, 2025.

Transport yourself back in time at Swing Night, featuring Jen Hodge All Stars! Dress in your best vintage attire — poodle skirts, zoot suits, and all — for a night full of classic cars, swing music and dancing. The Forbidden Dance Company will help you master the moves of the era, so whether you're new to swing or a seasoned dancer, you’ll be able to get into the groove. Swing Night will have everyone dancing the night away.

It’s free to attend this all-ages event! Gates open at 6:30 p.m. Food trucks will be on site, and refreshments will be available to purchase. This event is licensed; come prepared to show two pieces of ID at the point of purchase. The City will offer a free bike valet beginning at 6:30 p.m., and BC Transit is offering free fares on transit service from 5 p.m. until the last trip on all fixed routes.
