Stormy Weather
Midsummer Night Swing makes every effort to present each event of the season, as long as unpredictable summer weather allows. Performance cancellations due to inclement weather will not be announced until 8:30 on show night. In the case of a cancellation, ticket holders are entitled to exchange for another performance or a refund.
Accessibility
The dance floor is wheelchair accessible. Assistive listening devices are available to borrow from the Information Tent.
Audience Advisory: Bags and purses, regardless of size, may not be brought onto the dance floor. We strongly recommend that you leave your bags at home, but if you need to bring them, you must use the bag check in Damrosch Park for a fee of $4. Note: Pass holders receive one free bag check per entry. Please refrain from stopping to take photos or videos while on the dance floor. Photos and videos may be taken from the sidelines and off the floor—don’t forget to tag #LCSwing!
