After transitioning to online dance events last year, The Music Center’s Dance DTLA returns to in-person dancing this summer! Friday nights are heating up in Downtown L.A. as event-goers can dance the night away on Jerry Moss Plaza at The Music Center, from August 13 through September 10, 2021, between 7:00 p.m.–11:00 p.m. The Music Center’s Dance DTLA is a free night of dancing, with each Friday evening focusing on a different genre (schedule below). Top L.A. dance instructors in Cumbia, Disco, Motown, Salsa and Bollywood will provide beginner dance lessons with easy-to-follow steps so guests can hit the dance floor to practice some new moves. Each Dance DTLA also features local DJ sets to keep the party vibe going. No dancing experience necessary!
