After an overwhelmingly positive response last year at Hawkeye Swing Festival, we are proud to be back for our 7th year on the beautiful University of Iowa campus in Iowa City, IA.

Our goal is to inspire and create memorable experiences for dancers and musicians alike through opportunities to learn, perform, and compete. In 2012 we carry this goal forward by bringing you 3-days of dance experiences that include amazing live music, high energy competitions, high quality classes, and great opportunities to perform in front of hundreds of dancers from all over the world!

The Hawkeye Swing Festival is three days of workshops, social dancing, performances, and competitions.

Our goal is to inspire and create memorable experiences for dancers and musicians alike through opportunities to learn, perform, and compete.
