The Avalon is a beautiful space for a wide variety of dance. We appreciate the openness to the community. We received clear and timely communication regarding our rental from Jim. We look forward to renting again!

Great place for ballroom dancing, lessons included!

It was a great drive through art show.

I was invited for a community party and very impressed to see the solar panels & EV (electric vehicle) chargers. This company cares for the environment & evolves with the change. I mentioned this to all the people that I know-thanks for the great work. You guys Rocks!

Great place for a rally!

Dance venue. We rent the large ballroom for round dance events. Ballroom floor is an engineered cushioned hardwood dance floor. A kitchen is available off the ballroom. Convenient location in Boulder with covered parking.

I usually dont review the places which I absolutely love (because I dont want others to find it). But this is an amazing place if you have totally given up on dancing in this life. If someone like me can do few decent things, there is still hope for you.

The Avalon Ballroom is a fantastic dance venue! Check out their calendar for the vast variety of dance classes and events. The New Years Eve party is TERRIFIC! My favorite part of the Avalon is the community - welcoming, friendly, and fun!

I cater here on occasion. I do not know much about the classes but I can tell you it is a very beautiful venue. Classy with a Boho vibe.

We had an all Staff meeting in the ballroom. They catered the meal and set up the seating. It was a great place to be able to fit everyone in.

I thought it was a nice place . People were very friendly and nice. Instructors were very professional ,nice and helpful.Didnt like the food that well was not to my taste . Overall it was a great experience.

One of the best places for salsa dancing on the Front Range. On Thurs nights, Joseph & Kasia Snowhawk host 2 hours of dance classes for many levels of dancers. Instructors are excellent. Thats followed by over 2 hours of social dance time. You wont be disappointed!

I had never been dancing before and was honored to be invited by Nona. Everyone was so welcoming and I even got some free pointers. The food was delicious!

We had a wonderful time Valentines Day. Lessons were fun ad we loved the band and vocal group with the 40s big band music.

This is a beautiful venue with wonderful folks involved in numerous fantastic projects. We frequent the Saturday swing dances and Wednesday waltzes. They even offer free Wi-Fi. If you need a large dance floor to rent (or a small one), solid sound systems, and/or a large kitchen, you should check them out.

Ive been social Latin dancing in many cities (Atlanta, Chattanooga, Pittsburgh), and this location has been my favorite to go to. Thursday $10 will get you TWO hour long lessons plus entry to the social. Ive always wanted to learn Rueda and am finally able to do so!! The atmosphere of the dancers is so friendly and their set up of beginner/intermediate/advanced classes lets you progress nicely and meet people before the social begins. Highly recommend for dancers of all levels.

This place is a dancers DREAM COME TRUE! Its huge with many rooms of different dancing options. Tango, Contra, Folk, oh my! You wouldnt know from the outside how beautiful the inside is bc its a remodeled warehouse from years in past according to people who shared about its history. The community members volunteered much of their time to make this place what it is today! Wow, thank you I only wished I lived in a town with this place. My friend and I were only visiting town for a Kaiut yoga teacher happening next door at Naropa Nalanda campus. She was introducing me to contra when really I wished I had known there was a tango practica happening in one of the back rooms bc that was more my dance.That said, we found info about contra in the local free paper but nothing about tango or any other dances happening that night. I would suggest a better way to advertise for people who are not from area.The photo is of the main ballroom which has gorgeous decor and has a beautiful floor, great seating, entrance, and easy access bathrooms. Tons of parking which is under carport like roofs. I noticed there are several entrances from outside to different smaller dance rooms, with the one main entrance facing the main road.

Its a really nice place where you can always learn something. Nice people and nice teachers

Salsa dancing on Thursday night was excellent. Great lesson options, and lots of fun people to dance with after.

They always have some kind of music and dancing scheduled. Very fun place to go.

Great floorsVery well designed for dancersComfortable parking covered space.Dancers paradise.

Thursday is salsa night. Lots of eye candy. this is my favorite dancing venue. Between 8:40 and 10:40 I get a real workout. I dance with a lot of beginners some Wallflowers and a few very accomplished dancers. I see lots of younger people exchanging phone numbers. 2 hours of being around supermodels is probably enough for a whole week. Can you get too much of a good thing?

Good variety of movement arts offered here. Im disappointed they cut down all the parking lot trees in order to install solar pv canopy, but such is progress.

Cool cooperative/ shared space dance hall with a plethora of dance classes and a few types of dance floors. Multiple areas for simultaneous productions. Solar powered, large, covered parking lot.

Janis joplin performed there ppl

Designed for dance lessons. Perfect for that!

Great Mardi Gras party, stage and dance floor

Great dance studio. Everyone is professional and friendly. Good times!

Largest sprung wood dance floor in the area. Great sound systems! Hard to beat for any form of organized dancing.

Best and only place to dance salsa, tango, swing in Boulder .

The Avalon Ballroom in Boulder, Colorado, has become an extraordinary hub for so many dance forms and events that need to accommodate large groups (I think their capacity is over 400 people) as well as smaller dance events in smaller studios. Excellent dance floors throughout, plenty of parking, excellent sound system, kitchens, etc. A great experience even if you just want to watch.

Went to a contact Improvisation dance here and had a great time!

If you love dancing you will love the Avalon.

My favorite happy place

I love dancing here. There are live swing dance nights, salsa night, many different kinds of dance clases, zumba, diferent rooms to rent if you want to run your own class.... And the main hall room with the fabrics makes it like a dream

A nice venue for a dance party as long as your band or dj brings ALL of their own sound equipment. Right now major construction in parking lot while building a solar cover to help power main building.

The event was kind of overbooked and did not have space set aside for handicap

Tonight was fun,,,hadnt been there in 3 months

The floor is the best Ive danced on. The owners are wonderful and both enjoy dancing as well.

The salsa dance lessons on Thursday nights are so much fun! The instructors are knowledgeable and make it an inviting atmosphere. There is always a good mix of men and women. There are plenty of dance partners to choose from during the open dance session but it isnt nearly as crowded as some of the clubs in Denver.

Love all the events that they hold here. Especially the Boulder friends of Jazz club that meets there the first Sunday of the month at one. I love the door prizes, food, drinks and huge exciting gift basket raffels. All singers and musicians are welcome to come up on stage and play or sing along. I love to sing and get my jazz moves on. I highly recommend it

Great dance floor, terrific music and yummie snacks.Whats not to like.

I love dancing at the Avalon. The dance floor is beautiful. The facility is deceptively large with multiple areas to accommodate dance. There is also a healthy offering of different types of dance to satisfy all types of dancers. I like the fact that it is family friendly as well.

Cool venue for performing and dancing.

Great people, great dancing for anyone of any skill, great atmosphere.

Good venue location! Cool candiler.

This place, but it has been a staple of Boulder dance community for a long time. They hold different types of dance events - tango, modern, tea dance, etc, and the facilities are great - excellent floor in the large ballroom, smaller practice studios in the back. Check their website for all the events taking place or check out all the fliers for various events in the lobby.

Mass movement is lots of fun :D

Just an amazing place to learn and dance salsa, bachata, and swing. The teachers are patient and skilled, the dancing is fun, and everyone has a great time.

The avellanos amazing we hosted the KGNU mardi gras extravaganza!

This is a great place to dance. Their main ballroom has a large dance floor thats in excellent shape and they have other small rooms that I believe they have dance lessons in and I think a few other things that happene at this event center.

Very fun setting. Snacks and drinks available with entry, at least for the one night I attended... Really fun swing atmosphere!

Very nice & roomy with a beautiful wood floor. Spacious enough for large gatherings & comfortable atmosphere.

Great place to have fun.

Love this dance place great atmosphere

Learn to love yourself. Then you can learn to dance. Or was it the other way around!? Tango with Boulder Tango Studio, that resides here.

I love the CFOOTMAD contra dancing every other Friday in Boulder!!! Some weeks the music is more lively than others... something I learned the hard way Lol. Average age of attendees is well over 60, but dont let that fool you. Everyone is very skilled at contra dancing!!! and while they are generally friendly... they might get salty if you dont know the moves :| another lesson I learned the hard way. I recommend dancing with the regulars for the first three contras if you and your dance partner are both beginners.

A great space for large group functions... nice large dance floor... a great stage and sound system... very clean... lots of parking.

Amazing salsa, people don’t even let you sit. Good place to learn

Best place to go dancing in Boulder!

I go to the Monthly BARHA events, and always impressed with the care of the staff and beauty of the venue. I highly recommend going there and using their room for any event your company may need.

Fabulous dance floor! Great people!

A lot of new people, the teacher for the beginner class for la rueda had a lot of knowledge but did not know how to teach at all. He made one of the guys feel really bad and she kept yelling.5/1Allison in the advance salsa class is fantastic

Amazing sprung wood dance floors built by volunteers. Dancing every day. All ages. Lessons. Run by Boulder Dance Coalition, a great non-profit. Swing, waltz, salsa, zumba, tea dances, contra, you-name-it.

Nice place big, open, airy great for events

Excellent spacious dance floor.

Been going to events here on and off for years, great space, love the atmosphere.

I go dancing here all the time. Love it!

Great for partys

A wonderful place for dancing.....great music... great people!

It is a huge ballroom will multiple rooms branching off so that they can do multiple lessons at a time. If you are looking for somewhere to dance latin dances this is place

The Avalon is a great place to dance! There are a variety of dances to choose from.

Wonderful dancing community! Love the contra night and swing night. And you can rent rooms for events!

The Avalon is incredible. I love the salsa community.

I love to practice Contact Improv here.

Pretty great dance hall. Thursdays have Salsa and West Coast Swing lessons by freindly and helpful instructors.

Love this dance venue. Such a great mix of people and choices. Run by dancers!

Great space for CI Lab on some Sundays. Look up which days have CI and other dance forms as well (movement mass, Tango, contemporary class, Zumba, and more).

The best dance studios in the Denver area, large ballroom great for bands, much better than a club, byob.

Great space for many types of dancing.

The Avalon is a fun dance studio in east Boulder. Tons of varying events are hosted here- the place is huge!

Nice space, clean, great dances. Thank you to all who allow created and sustain this dance space.

Nowhere I would rather dance in colorado. Amazing handcrafted oak floor, wonderful community, and a variety of dance for everyone!

Its one of the best Dance floors Ive ever danced on..I love the avalon Ballroom .its so big and a really nice space..very expensive shock absorbing dance floor

Great teachers and fun bunch to shake a leg with!

Fun time and friendly people make for a wonderful, inexpensive evening

All things dance happen here. Great people too!

My partner and I have used the main ballroom and Sodal hall for private practice, and they are both amazing spaces (great floors, very large, and built-in sound system) for a very affordable price.

Had a photo booth service here and loved the layout of the ball room

Great place to dance, wonderful floor, nice people.

Great venue. Conveniently located. Lots of parking.

Grate place and grate people.would be grate if the music got changed up a bit on salsa night. The number of salsa bands is not in short supply why not play different music?

Mardi gras party was great!

Ive been invited to this establishments many times over the years and am happy that I finally made it out. Yesterday marked the 25th anniversary of the Boulder Dance Coalition and the 10th Anniversary of the Avalon so it was an extra special fun-filled day of live music, free dance lessons, International Bazaar topped with folks of all ages and dance abilities.As this was a special occasion the hall was decked out with a number of tables, tablecloths, as well as a bar. The dance floor featured several couches/chairs along one side which folks used to relax and catch up in-between dances. My friend and I found a table with a few spaces and hadnt been sitting there for more than 2 minutes before a gentlemen came up and asked her to dance.Not being much of a dancer myself I was a bit hesitant and guarded to start but urged myself to stay at least through the dinner. Meeting up with my pal at the water fountain following her dance it was my turn to take a spin on the dance floor. The gentlemen that asked me to dance was happy to teach me the basic steps of swing and after a few minutes of fumbling I let loose and before I knew it we had danced for a few songs. I was sold, perhaps dancing didnt have to be as difficult as Id thought.Soon after the dinner began. We feasted on lush green salads with fig, rice, harissa chicken, and pulled pork with peppers - all prepared by volunteers - amazing! Dessert was spiced cheese, jellied apple german cake with whipped cream, spice cake, lemon poppy cake with delectable lemon icing, as well as hand made local ice cream (which appeared to be made by one of the patrons).There was a brief slideshow of the history of the space highlighting all the hard work the volunteers had put in to lay down the floor and continuously take care of the buliding. Just that day volunteers had erected a new Avalon sign outside. Their philosophy is that if each person does a little no one has to do a lot - awesome.My partner surprised us with a visit to the event and we were soon all contra dancing out on the floor (think square dancing but much older). It was a fun, wild, dizzying adventure but well worth writing home about. I had to say it really was a lot of fun dancing with so many different people, though this had initially been something I was a bit nervous about.Another smaller ballroom featured folk dances as well as a Swedish band from Stolkhom. So awesome, many folks got way into it with festive garb which was just amazing.Ill definitely be returning soon for a lesson or two.

Very beautiful place

Awesome space, super fun dance lessons, great instructors!

Covering the parking lot with solar panels!

Love the energy and the instructors are great.

Wonderful and large dance floors.

Had the worst experience ever, trying to book this place for a private event. Go somewhere else!!!
