WHAT IS MLX?

The Melbourne Lindy Exchange is a social dance event for swing dancers. Before the internet, social exchanges were where dancers came together to learn from each other on the social floor, and we are proud to run MLX in the same tradition. We pride ourselves on bringing you great live jazz and DJs to play a variety of music and tempos.

​

MLX is organised by the Melbourne Jazz Dance Association (MJDA), a not-for-profit organisation formed especially to run the exchange.

​

Want to get involved? Get in touch, we're always keen for new committee members!

LOOKING FOR MERCH?

We have partnered with RedBubble for tees and other goodies!
