Mid-Winter Festival 2026 welcomes you to Dance Around The Clock. It is with great pleasure and gratitude that we welcome you to the 66th annual Mid-Winter Festival. Without you we would not be doing what we do. So please enjoy this great weekend that we have planned for you. Dance, shop and visit with other dancers. Our featured caller this week-end is Ray Brendzy. Our round dance cuers are JL & Linda Pelton. Our clogging instructor is Andrew Petty. They will all keep us on our toes on the dance floors.
We have a wonderful committee that has spent many hours working to make this a fun filled festival. We especially thank them for all of their attention and dedicated work. Please take a moment to thank them for their time and effort when you see them. Several of them have been on the Mid-Winter committees for years because they love our activity. Have a great time here in Albany and remember to share your love of dancing with others so we can keep this great activity alive and strong. Enjoy the weekend at the Linn County Expo Center.
The commitee encourages you to dress up according to the theme of the Festival. This year is Dance Around The Clock which is playing off of the 50’s-60’s culture, so dress up in outfits that represent that time frame. Don't like dressing up? Just come in the festivals colors of black, hot pink and white instead. Please remember to keep all attires family freindly.
