Mark your calendar now for the 19TH ANNUAL FALL CYCLONE - Nov 6-8, 2009!
As our guests say, "Nothing on Earth compares to a Cyclone".


In 2008, the Carolina Beach Music Awards recognized the Cyclone as being the best party of the year. Check out the award, below.

Plans for the 2009 Fall Cyclone will be posted within the next few weeks. We are currently finalizing contracts and motel agreements.

Check back here, soon, as this is where plans will be announced, first. Then get your ticket before we sell out!

 



Where did the party get it's name? The party was named after the time of the year, and to tie into the club name (Twisters) so people would remember it. A "cyclone" is a twister with water. In our case, we figured that twisters in the Lake Norman area must be a Cyclone!

How has it evolved? The first year our party was host to about 350 people. Over the past 18 years we have grown. At one point we had over 1100 people. We decided to cut back our numbers to ensure we didn't get too crowded. However, we now have a sellout every year. So, get your tickets early. Our party (and our club) has an excellent reputation. In fact, all four times our club has been eligible, the Association of Carolina Shag Clubs (over 100 clubs) has selected us to host their annual Winter meeting and party.

Who comes? We have attendees from all over the East Coast. We draw from many different shag clubs, and from the crowd of people who love the music and the dance, but are not in clubs. We also have dignitaries, Ocean Drive lounge owners and staff, dance professionals and instructors, and other well-known people at our event. It's a reunion of good friends and fun.
