Here is a list of most frequently asked questions about Camp Hollywood. If you don’t find an answer to your question here, please e-mail us at info@camphollywood.net, we’ll be glad to help!
1. Can I buy a day pass for classes or an individual class?
No, sorry. In order to take classes you do need to be a weekend pass holder.
2. What class level should I sign up for?
You don’t have to sign up for and stick with a specific track, although we encourage people to stay at a level they feel competent in. Our new Balboa and Shag tracks will feature a Beginning class on both Friday and Saturday for those who wish to get started learning these dances, but will have classes at all different levels throughout the weekend. Most Solo track classes are All Levels unless otherwise specified. The Beginner track (Lindy Hop) is progressive, so we recommend staying with this track for the most consistency.
3. What if I want to do everything BUT the classes at the camp (ie, spectate the daytime contests, attend evening dances, etc)?
We recommend you buy our “Party Pass” now which gets entrance to all events if you don’t want to take classes. You can add a contest at any time to this pass if you decide to be a competitor, but be aware that some contests will be full before the camp weekend (Amateur Mix & Match, Showcase, Am Classic and Am Lindy are likely to be full).
4. What is your refund policy?
The refund policy details can be found here.
5. I am planning on chaperoning a minor during Camp Hollywood, how does this work?
We allow one chaperone per minor, e-mail us for details.
6. What is included in the weekend pass rate?
All events – so, all classes, evening dances (except Thursday), contest spectating, after hours, etc. Not included are meals, hotel rooms, and contest fees if you’re planning on competing.
7. I want to watch my friend/relative in a contest, what does this cost?
It depends on when the contest occurs – we have daytime contest spectating tickets and evening dance tickets in the “registration” section. If you need help, shoot us an e-mail!
8. I can’t check in Thursday night, when are your check in times?
Check in and new camp sign ups go on throughout the weekend. We start check in at 5 PM Thursday evening and then again at 8 AM Friday morning.
9. What do I do if the hotel says it’s full or the rate isn’t available?
E-mail us at info@camphollywood.net, we *may* be able to add rooms for you! If not, please keep checking the reservation link. As people cancel rooms they get added back into our block and can be re-booked. We also have a chance to offer canceled rooms back for sale in the last two weeks before camp, so that’s a great time to check with the hotel.
10. How do I contact someone if I have a medical issue, or see something unsafe or concerning during the event?
Please call our Safety Hotline at 323-917-3132 or email CHSafetyBrigade@gmail.com. If it is a hotel-related issue, please contact hotel staff.
11. What is your COVID policy?
