Sunday nights are the main club meeting nights at Swizzles Lounge in The Cedar Bluff Holiday Inn Select from 7pm-10pm. Shag lessons are taught by Tom and Ginny Marsh at 6pm on Sundays. The club DJ spins the tunes for the usual group of about 60 shaggers dancing on the 10 x 40 wood dance floor. The floor has an unusual jagged shape to it, with mirrors and murals on the walls, but it’s a nice floor for shagging. Snacks are provided near the bar, and a full service restaurant is right next door for those that prefer a meal. There is no cover charge to join in on the fun. With the newly passed Tennessee public smoking ban, this facility complies with the regulations for non- smoking. Smokers must go to designated smoking areas outside. There is plenty of seating, including around the bar, at tables and the lounge area. This club of around 190 members is fortunate to have a couple of other venues available during the week for shag dancing. The Palace (formerly Michael’s), plays shag/beach music on Tuesday and Friday nights from 6pm-9pm. Thursday nights, shaggers can head out to The Electric Cowboy from 7:30-10:30.

This club also hosts a well known annual Smoky Mountain Boogie weekend in late March or early April in Pigeon Forge.

These Tennessee Volunteers enjoy a good time and they will happily make you a part of the “family”. You’ll see many of them traveling to other shag club parties, and you won’t miss them “tailgating” at the beach during SOS events.
