Pier Dance

Leave it all on the dance floor with a series of free dance lessons every Wednesday night in June at the Ferrara Candy Wave Wall Stage at Navy Pier. Each week features a new dance style taught by Chicago’s top instructors, followed by open dance so you can keep moving and practice your steps.

No experience needed—just show up and move with the music.
