Techno Party Dance with Katie Zanders

Step into a night of music, mystery, and movement at the Halloween Techno Party Dance with Katie Zanders. This special contra-fusion event transforms the dance floor into a costumed celebration, blending traditional contra steps with the pulse of techno beats. With lights, sound, and spirited company, it’s a chance to revel in the season’s playfulness while giving your favorite costume a whirl.

Expect a lively mix of haunting rhythms and high-energy calling as Katie Zanders leads dancers through patterns that are both familiar and freshly reimagined. The Halloween theme adds an extra spark—whether you come dressed as a ghost, a ghoul, or something entirely your own, the night promises revelry, laughter, and the magic of dancing together in disguise.
