Pittsburgh is fortunate to have two great Cajun Bands: Grand Bon Rien, and Venez au Bal. We've put together a regular Cajun dance series that runs from October through June on the first Saturday of the month. We've also got a fourth Saturday dance that alternates between Zydeco (Zydeco Dogz) and Western Swing (the Mavens), starting in September. Dances are held at the Bulgarian Macedonian Beneficial Association Hall in West Homestead near Pittsburgh (click here for map.). Dance instruction starts at 7:30 p.m., and live music starts at 8:30. No partners are necessary, and refreshments are available at the hall.

Here's the dance schedule for September 2007 through June 2008:
