Events are monthly at weekends, and alternate between Dorset and New Forest, Hampshire. They happen every month except for July and August.
Dorset events are normally at the Brownsword Hall, Poundbury (DT1 3GW) on the 2nd Friday evening of one month.
New Forest events are normally at Ibsley Village Hall, near Ringwood (BH24 3NL) on the 2nd Sunday afternoon of the following month.
Do check individual events to confirm dates and venues, as they vary occasionally.

Events where you can join the music making
You can dance at all our events, but some are open to musicians to join the band. Those events use the Eurobal Wessex tunebook, which is full of good tunes to play over the summer and you can download from Dropbox. Our MCs will pick tunes from the tunebook and musicians are welcome to join in with the music, or dance, or a mixture of both.
Do share any ideas for new tunes or dances you'd like to see with us by email.
In the New Forest area, there is a regular Euro tunes session where a lot of those tunes get played every month - see their Facebook page.
