1st and 3rd Sunday Contra Dances

BIDA hosts a contra dance on the first and third Sunday of every month at the Masonic Hall in Porter Square, Cambridge, MA. These run 7:30-10:30 and cost $5-$10 (sliding scale).

We offer an introductory workshop at 7pm, and if you've never contra danced before your first night is free if you come by 7pm.

Musicians: come sit in at one of our dances! Sit-ins are always welcome.

BIDA Needs Volunteers!

Earn free admission to events by volunteering. Have room for people to play music and dance? Host a party! Have an idea for a workshop? We'll work with you to make it happen.
