Danceland

 

 
Located in the Latham Circle Mall, Danceland is 'almost' a line dancer's dream come true! Reminiscent of Starburst, a skating rink that used to draw hundreds of line dancers every Wednesday night, this place boasts a gigantic wooden floor. If you're looking for 'country' line dancing, check the schedule before you head out, as you could end up 'country' line dancing to obscure pop, rock or latin music. Danceland offers all styles of dance from swing to ballroom dancing.

City Sports Grille at Spare Time

 

 
Located within the Spare Time Bowling Center in Clifton Park, the City Sports Grille is one of the coziest venues to 'cut footloose.' A delicious menu, friendly staff and dozens of televisions make this bar one of our favorite stops every week. If the dance floor was a bit bigger, this could be turned into one of the best country dance clubs in the Northeast. Check out Country Night every Tuesday and select Saturdays.

Joe's East West

 

 
If you take a little road trip from Albany to New Paltz, New York, you will find Joe's East West. This nightclub features several 'Country' nights every week. The rustic look of the building will make you feel like you're dancing in the Wild West. Mostly packed with local college kids, the floor is always filled with classics like 'Bartender's Stomp,' 'Tush Push' and '16 Step.' If Joe's continues to 'keep it Country,' we're sure they will continue to grow as one of the biggest and best country dance clubs in the nation.
