Welcome to the third edition of Herräng Winter Weekend, January 31 - February 2, 2020!
Herräng Winter Weekend is a small scale event trying to reflect what it was like coming to Herräng before the revival took off somewhere in the mid 1990s. It also comes with a long line of different generations Hot Shots dancers, and offers an old school perspective and experience, not under a summery sun but under a wintery moon.
