On this evening, the Jazz-Schmiede will be transformed into a ballroom of the 30s and 40s. Lindy Hop is the dance to swing music that found its namesake in the late 1920s in Charles Lindbergh, who crossed the Atlantic in 1927. The headline of the day back then was: "Lucky Lindy Hops the Atlantic". Today, this dance is back on the dance floor.
