|  Social Events Listing for 2012
Below (scroll down folks!) is a list of social events happening in an area near you during 2012, some are organised by Swing Dance Societies and Lindy Hop clubs others are simply local venues hosting events that may be of interest - i.e live jazz nights etc. Not all will be suitable for dancing but may still be of interest. In addition there are also a few events of interest from further afield which I'll particularly list if they're friends of Nottingham Lindy Hop or I know that some of our dancers are heading along to. Keep me updated Please let me know if there's anything I've missed that you'd like me and others to know about and I'll get it added asap. Mailing list While I'd always advise keeping a close eye on this live version on the site (as even with the best planning, I sometimes find out about events at short notice), I also send a copy of this out via email each month or so as a bit of a reminder for you all. So if you'd like to receive this click here and request to be added to the mailing list. Hope to see you out dancing soon!
This following list of events is provided in good faith, but please check details with event organisers before travelling or attending as changes and cancellations can occur. Nottingham Lindy Hop is not responsible for the organisation or activities of any of the events listed, unless specified as NLH events. Table last updated on Wednesday, 04 January 2012
