About

Step back in time to wartime Henley and celebrate the end of World War II with a fully immersive 1940s Dance Hall Experience. This fantastic event is a tribute to the weekly entertainment that the council provided for residents, evacuees, and military personnel stationed in Henley-on-Thames.

Join us for a night of nostalgia with The BIG R 16-piece swing band, Lindy Hop dancers showcasing their moves and teaching steps, and The Old Bell's 1940s-themed bar serving up cocktails and drinks from the era. The evening will also feature a special address by Sir Winston Churchill.

Dress to impress 1940s style and immerse yourself in the era of wartime Henley.
