Swinging in the Street 2026 - FREE Outdoor Street Dance

Dust off your dancing shoes, Winona — it's time to SWING!
The 6th Annual Swinging in the Street is back, and we're taking over Downtown Winona for one incredible night of FREE live music, dancing, and pure summer magic!
Friday, June 12 | 6–10pm

Third & Center Street (in front of Blooming Grounds)
Here's how the night goes:

6–7pm — FREE dance lessons with Stan & Molly Breitlow. Total beginner? Perfect. That's exactly who these are for.

7–9pm — Live music with Greg Balfany & members of the La Crosse Jazz Orchestra. Yes, it's going to be that good.

9–10pm — Late-night dancing in the street. You won't want to stop.
This is River City Ballroom Dancers' gift to the whole community — no ticket, no cover, no excuses. Just show up and move!
Come hungry! Your downtown favorites will be open and ready — Blooming Grounds, Miya Japanese Bistro, Nate & Ally's, The Lafayette, and Peter's Biergarten.
Tag someone you're bringing and we'll see you on the street!
