ABOUT WORLD LINDY HOP DAY & TOWLHD:
As one of the prime creators of the Lindy hop, and the most influential person in swing dance history, Frankie Manning’s birthday (May 26th, 1914) is a fitting marker for World Lindy Hop Day. Since the 1980s, his birthday has inspired special events across the globe in celebration of the man, the music, and the dance. Grounded in unity and collaboration, World Lindy Hop Day, celebrated every May 26th, encourages people from all different backgrounds to enjoy and share the many benefits of this joyous and enduring dance. Toronto is proud to join in World Lindy Hop Day celebrations, with other Lindy Hop communities around the world.
Toronto World Lindy Hop Day welcomes people from all walks of life, all ages, and from around the world to experience this exuberant Black social dance. Originating in Harlem, New York City in the 1920s and 1930s, the Lindy hop is done to the big band jazz of the era.
