WhereTower Genova Airport Hotel, Genova, Italy

Three days of Lindy Hop and Solo Jazz in Genova: classes with international teachers, parties with live music, tasters, mix & match and a farewell party.

Classes and the Friday and Saturday parties take place in the same hotel, right next to the airport, where you can also stay. The Sunday party moves to the city centre, at the Giardini Luzzati.

A world-class lineup at a festival that still feels small and cozy.

Five teaching couples from the international scene: Frida & Skye, Alice & Xesc, Pamela & Tadas, Sonia & Hector, and Ana & Alberto. Every Lindy Hop level gets classes with every couple, plus themed classes, tasters and Mix & Match.

That's just who we are.

We travel to festivals abroad and wanted to bring that feeling home. We’re a non-profit association, and our only goal is to break even. Everything goes back into the festival.

Live music every night.

The Hot Swing Sextet comes from Bordeaux for Friday and Saturday, and a Genoa band closes the festival on Sunday.

Land, drop your bag, dance.

The whole festival happens in one hotel, 500 metres from the airport terminal. Classes, parties and your room are all under one roof, so you never need a taxi or a timetable. Everyone stays together, and new faces quickly become friends.

Genoa in May.

Sunshine, the sea, maybe your first swim of the year. On Friday you can join lunch at Boccadasse and a free walk through the old town with Genoese dancers, with a few dances in the squares along the way. On a break between classes, the marina is 15 minutes away on foot.

You're not getting any younger.

Physio, massage and gentle yoga at the hotel, to look after our poor little bodies!
