Welcome  

Glad to have you in Atlanta!
 

Welcome to the 14th annual USA Grand National Dance Championships !!!
 

The Grand Nationals is a unique competition event because it is a national showcase for two distinct styles of Swing – West Coast Swing, which is popular all across the country, and Carolina Shag, which was born in, and for many years exclusive to, the Carolinas. Both dances are similar in that the basic step consists of two triples and a double, but each has its own special movement and styling.
 

In addition to offering 12 top level competitive divisions where the best dancers in the country compete for over $40,000 in cash & trophies, the Grand Nationals will also offer workshops conducted by nationally recognized Swing and Shag Champions as well as over 30 hours of social dancing – so there is something here for everyone.
 

Extras, including FREE Anqet Natural Spring Water provided all weekend by Alleghany Products, a FREE ice cream party on Saturday and Sunday, two ballrooms with DJs at all times, late night dancing each night until 5 am, and special dance exhibitions by elite dance performers make this an event you don’t want to miss!
 

The USA Grand Nationals will be held on Memorial Weekend, May 22th - May 26th, at the elegant Renaissance Waverly Hotel in Atlanta, Georgia. Come join the more than 1,500 dancers from around the country for this very exciting dance competition and party. We will do our best to make your weekend a memorable one.

Sincerely yours,
