It is held annually in July in Herräng, Sweden, and focuses both on instruction and dancing.
Swing era dancers that have presented at the camp include Al Minns, Frankie Manning,[4][5] Norma Miller,[6] Chazz Young, and Dawn Hampton.
This includes several cafes; a full cafeteria serving buffet-style meals; a shop for dance supplies, accessories and daily essentials; bicycle rental; housing of various standards; and nightly entertainment.
The first Herräng Dance Camp was held for one week, starting on 1 August 1982, and was organized by the Swedish Swing Society, a swing dance organization based in Stockholm, Sweden.
For the following five years, the camp grew in popularity in and around Sweden, and was only attended by Swedish dancers.
