UpTown Swing was a really great experience. It was my first time there and I've really enjoyed what Ibi did. The Venue is really really nice and well decorated. The hotel and breakfast are top tier! The parties were cool a bit crowded at times. Same for some open workshops, but the A/C handled it beautifully. Loved the personal touches and side quests with table tennis and board games and puzzles. The vibe is really nice and although I was a bit skeptical at first about the choreos that were prepared over the weekend, it turned out to be a really cool activity that participants can take part in and have some fun on Sunday.

This event is amazing, cosy (quite big though) and focused on social aspect of dancing. I loved the atmosphere and set up of pro shows. Even though it was far from city centre there is enough grocery options nearby.

A very lovely event! The Swedish community is very kind, welcoming and the event has a very cozy vibe. The competitions happen quite quickly so there’s a lot of time for dancing. The venue is nice, although I feel like the floor was more on the sticky side in comparison to other events I’ve been to (and I use special dancing tapes to make it slippery). The intensive was very good! The routine battles are very fun! Overall, a very nice event! ❤️

This was my first swedish event and I'm very enthusiastic about the vibe and openness of the communities at the event. The ED Ibi is very passionate about the event amd tries to maximize the social dancing time at the parties, which is lovely to see. I also really liked that there was a reserved timeslot for open practice. The ballroom has a proper size for the amount of people and very good AC (can get a bit cold when not dancing) The workshops of the Intermediate Track had a good mix of technique, dynamics/musicality and patterns to utilize those things. I will definitely come back next year :)
