Cheltenham Town Hall is a magnificent venue that boasts a massive ornate main hall, and 2 smaller rooms, the Pillar Room and the Drawing Room. This means we can run up to 3 classes simultaneously for you to select from. There is no need to sign up to a stream in advance, so you can go to whichever lessons take your fancy (numbers permitting).

NB: in previous years we have been able to put on free dance classes for everyone outside at the Garden Bar (Orangery). However, due to a change in circumstances at the Town Hall, this offer was withdrawn early this year, so we've had to move those classes inside. This means all classes will be for festival goers only.
