Dance the night away!
3 dancefloors, 7 nights a week – open as long as the last dancer is standing
It is well known that Herräng Dance Camp never sleeps, and its parties hold as many surprises as you can imagine and more. You might even ask yourself if you are dreaming! Enjoy music jams in Bar Bedlam, live shows on the Dansbana(na), amazing midnight crêpes, impromptu 4 a.m. choreographies by Chester Whitmore, dance jams to our live bands. Each year is different and brings new adventures – immerse yourself in the Herräng Dance Camp night magic!
It is up to you. Our recommendation is that you look upon every night as a potential dress-up night, especially (and traditionally) on Slow Drag Night (Tuesday night's theme for The Ramble), and of course a suitable costume for Friday night's Theme Party. In general, it is advisable to freshen up and change clothes after your classes before entering the evening activities. If you tend to sweat a lot during dancing it does not hurt to also pack some extra shirts for the evening.
You can find all the information in the tab "Theme parties" on the top of this very page.
Theme parties
Join the party, every friday
Every Friday we celebrate the end of the HDC week with a great party. The party has a theme which everyone interprets in their own creative way. This tradition has been on (and off for a few years) almost since the beginning of camp, and we think we have seen ‘pretty much everything’. But still, we aim high and always look forward to seeing everyone dressed up.
The themes for Herräng Dance Camp 2026 will be announced here soon!
Week 1: Space
Suit up, space cadets! Houston, we have a party! So many stellar options for dressing up: Facts or fiction? NASA or the Enterprise? Be an astronaut, a scientist, or a creature from outer space. Get in Lt. Uhura’s iconic red gear, or go full Alien (but don’t lay your eggs in anyone's brain, OK). Just remember the party starts at 2000 hours and space is the place!
Week 2: Four Seasons
No, we don’t mean the hotel - we dress up as a season! Take Fats Waller’s advice and do a little spring cleaning. Maybe you’ll find something on the sunny side of the street to inspire you? Autumn leaves, or Frosty the snowman? Anyway, choose one of the four - spring, summer, autumn, winter - to guide your outfit, colors and textures. Let’s go Vivaldi!
Week 3: Under the Sea
This Friday we’re doing a deep dive under the sea. What’s lurking in the Mariana Trench (or the Herräng Marina)? Who’s paddling around the coral reef? Be an octopus, a sunken treasure, a merman or a fish - whatever you want, as long as you can do some swim outs (haha). Captain, set sails for new adventures, but don’t get lost in the Bermuda Triangle.
Week 4: Fashion Week
Strut down the runway styled for the gods! Let your silhouette be sharp as a Schiaparelli hat, or soft like a Valli skirt. Be that avant garde designer, or curate your closet to be the next street fashion diva. Mix, match, play with shape and color. Wear the attitude, wear the imagination and creativity, wear kooky shoes - express yourself on the cat walk. Vogue!
