AACTMAD Concourse Hall

4531 Concourse Drive
Ann Arbor, MI 48108
Google Maps

Concourse Hall was built specifically for dance groups in the Ann Arbor area. It features 2800 square feet of dance space on a sprung wood floor. It has been the home for Pirate Swing since its inception. With an ample Air Conditioning system and the "Big Ass Fan", we keep it nice and cool. Ample parking is available on site, and overflow parking can go along the roadway.

Campus Chapel

The Campus Chapel

1236 Washtenaw Ct
Ann Arbor, MI 48104
Google Maps

The Campus Chapel is a beautiful space, with a wood foor and a high ceiling. It is a new venue for Pirate Swing, but a few years back there were some weekly swing dances held here. We require shoes that will not leave marks or scuff the floor, so please, no hard leather soles.

Pittsfield Grange

Pittsfield Grange

3337 Ann Arbor-Saline Rd.
Ann Arbor, MI 48103
Google Maps

The Pittsfield Grange is a beautiful old dance hall, with wood floors and a stage. There is space downstairs for eating and socializing. In order to preserve the floor, no food is allowed upstairs and no beverages are allowed upstairs except for water in closed containers. This venue looks like a little old farmhouse, and there is a good chance you'll miss it the first time you drive past (most people do!). Parking is available on-site.

Come Dancing Studio

Come Dancing Studio

465 E Michigan Ave
Saline, MI 48176

Come Dancing is a local dance studio for a multitude of dance types. It's a nice sized floor, and has ample parking on site.

The Phoenix Center

220 S. Main St.
Ann Arbor, 48104
Google Maps

The Phoenix center has become a standard room for Ann Arbor's Friday weekly swing dance. It has been newly remodeled to add natural lighting to the large studio, and is perfect for our daytime solo dancing track.
