Welcome to Waltz Time
Waltz Time is an all-volunteer group of dancers who have produced the twice-monthly waltzes at Glen Echo Park since 1995.
The group has donated all net proceeds to the renovation of the Spanish Ballroom and the Bumper Car Pavilion, and to help
continue Park programs. All of the Sunday afternoon waltz dances are held at Glen Echo Park,
7300 MacArthur Blvd., Glen Echo, MD 20812 in the Spanish Ballroom or occasionally in the Bumper Car Pavilion (noted in the schedule below).
The Sunday afternoon waltz program follows a similar format at each event.
- A beginning waltz lesson is offered from 3 - 3:30 p.m.
followed by dancing to live music from 3:30 - 6:00 p.m.
- The lesson is included in the cost of the $8 admission.
- Dress is casual.
- You do not need a partner.
- You do not need prior dance experience.
- Tickets are sold at the door - there are no advance ticket sales.
Please visit our FAQ page for more answers to your questions. You can also email
