Fans of Western swing, vintage venues and country dancing are going to LOVE this one!

The original Bostonia Ballroom was a hot spot for western swing music in El Cajon a half-century ago, where some of the greatest names in country & western music came to play.

In the 1940s, 50s and through the 60s, the Bostonia was known as the Grand Ole Opry of the Southwest.

On regular rotation were touring acts such as Bob Wills, Patsy Cline, and Ray Price. Celebrities included Hank Williams, Johnny Cash, Merle Travis, and Willie Nelson. Lefty Frizzell, Spade Cooley, and Carl Perkins were among many top artists to play the storied venue during the Golden Years of California country music. Hundreds of bands performed nearly every day for decades, with as many as 1,500 patrons.

With that history in mind, they are re-creating the vintage Bostonia vibe, and adding an outdoor festival as well.

With three hot bands performing all evening and a sizable dance floor, the Bostonia Ballroom will be swinging once again!
