Pavillion Dance Series: Country Swing w/ Opal Moon

The Almont Pavillion Dance Series brings the Gunnison Valley together for an unforgettable summer tradition of live music and social dancing in the historic Almont Pavillion.

Built in 1921, the century-old maple dance floor has hosted generations of dancers and musicians, and today continues that legacy with weekly Wednesday evening events featuring dance lessons followed by live performances from some of Colorado’s finest folk, country, bluegrass, swing, and traditional dance bands.

Whether you’re a seasoned dancer or stepping onto the floor for the first time, the welcoming atmosphere makes it easy to learn, connect with friends, and enjoy a classic Colorado summer evening.

Dance lessons by Michaela and Michael Steed.

A catered style dinner buffet will be offered in the outdoor covered area behind the Pavillion from 5:30 – 7:30. Dancers can go through the buffet line that will include two types of smoked meat and a vegetarian option for sandwiches, a salad, two sides (beans/slaw/potato salad/etc.), a desert (cookie or brownie), and lemonade/water. Payment by card will be collected in the covered area. No more order and wait at the restaurant!
