Welcome

Welcome to the tenth annual Windy City Lindy Exchange! It's hard to believe that it's been ten years since a group of dancers from Chicago visited San Francisco and started the phenomenon which is now known as a lindy exchange!! What began as a way to experience the dance scene and culture of a different city has evolved into large events where people from all over the country and even other parts of the world will converge on one city for a weekend to dance.

For the past ten years, WCLX has brought dancers from all over the world to Chicago to enjoy the local venues, food, attractions, music, and dancers. Although the experience may not reflect Chicago's scene like in the early days of the exchange, the WCLX Committee still strives to focus mainly on the great and diverse talent that we have here in Chicago.

Transportation in Chicago

Both airports are easily accessible by public transportation, but note that there is a lot of construction on the CTA train system so please check www.transitchicago.com for updates. In some cases, it may cause delays. We will also have some sign-up sheets for rides available at each venue.

When traveling around the city, Chicagoans are generally pretty friendly and helpful, but Chicago is a large city and wherever you go it is important that you be careful. Be aware of your surroundings whether you are walking or in a car and if going anywhere by public transportation when you are not familiar with the area, we suggest traveling in groups.
