"Dine and Dance in Seattle Feel like learning to East Coast Swing, Salsa, Tango, Waltz or Kizomba while you're in Seattle ? From events to classes, to venue rentals and Footloose -inspired advocacy (repeal the 'dance tax' in Washington State), this is the perfect place for a creative date night. The organization is made up of three venues that include the Century Ballroom, the West Hall and the East Hall (pictured). Be sure to check online in advance for availability and times that certain types of lessons are taught, and then make a reservation. You're in the perfect place for dinner as well, in that hip East Pine St and 10th neighborhood, but wouldn't you know that the Century Ballroom owns a lovely dining spot on the same floor of the building where you'll be dancing. The intimate Tin Table is a great spot for a cocktail and some food to fuel all of that movement. Have fun!"

I've been coming to this gorgeous historic ballroom for over 2 decades. It feels like my dance home. Such amazing memories, friendships and of course, dances, here. Century Ballroom is a MUST SEE if you are a dancer living in or visiting Seattle. <3

This venue offers an excellent atmosphere for enjoying and dancing to Latin music. However, the DJ tends to focus on classic salsa, and there is a dedicated space for bachata. The crowd is mostly mature, with a mix of sugar daddies, cougars, and the local community from Seattle.

I *LOVE* this place! A temple for social dance. This is one of my favorite ways to see community, mingling, sharing connecting.... And I always feel welcomed. I have done both classes and socials here at the ballroom. One of my favorite parts is that almost every social has a lesson to go along with it. So if you don't quite know the dance, or if you're going out and someone in your group doesn't know all the steps, its totally fine, just show up early and you'll be dancing in no time. Keep your eyes on the calendar for fun upcoming events such as live bands, cabaret shows, specialty dances, and fun events! They have a punch card system for folks who come all the time, and all level one dancers get in for free to their respective socials so that you can practice! I've been dancing for 5 years now and this is where I feel most at home dancing

I have been coming to Century for over 15 years. Such an amazing community, venue, and place to meet new friends. Of all the dance communities in the area I think Century is the most down-to-earth. I always feel confident knowing I can take friends who are brand new to dancing or friends who are pros and in both cases they will feel comfortable and have fun. It’s great to go with a group but also totally comfortable to go by yourself. Either way you will have a great time! They offer drop-in classes, beginner/interm/adv series, and open social dancing. Even though I don’t get out to dance nearly as much as I once did, Century is still my #1 favorite business in all of Seattle because the community is so great!

What an beautiful space and amazing dance floor! Fantastic social dances and instructors, exciting opportunities to partner dance in any role, a wonderful opportunity to share community in queer dances & classes. And I love supporting a woman-owned and gay owed business. A real gem. Seattle should do all we can to support and sustain this resource!

The bar is quite comfortable, serves drinks and good food which is great to wait for the ballroom to open. The salsa classes are ok, you rotate partners so be warned. You would only get a taste of salsa to the classes so think of them as a way to socialize. After the class you can stay and dance past midnight. Definetly a peculiar gathering as you will find expert dancers as well as guys just looking to impress

Just heard the news that this place is closing in 2025!! Get here before they are gone as this is one of the best places to dance on the planet. Before disability life I could be found here almost every night of the week for years. Grab your dancing shoes or try it for the first time just GO GET SOME JOY and dance at century ballroom. Thank you for all the beautiful years. I've missed you and I'm so sad it's closing next year.

Very friendly instructors, spacious practice hall, bright and pleasant. Ideally bring a friend or a partner, solo dancers may not necessarily get paired up. The new year eve dinner and party are awesome!
