Heralding Abingdon Arts Festival this year, the Festival Ball promises to
be a fantastic event for dancers and music lovers. Festival dances of
previous years have offered a rare opportunity for dancers to step out to the accompaniment of a full dance orchestra – Abingdon’s own “SwingTime”. The band plays the original arrangements by Glenn Miller, Count Basie and many more stars of the Swing Era.
