Our most recent event was at the Museum of London's "Pleasure Garden Ball" on 14 February 2012. We had a lot of fun and were overwhelmed by the number of people wanting to learn a minuet.
Welcome to the website of the Covent Garden Minuet Company.
We perform the social dances of the 18th century, in particular the minuet, in full authentic costume, and aim to recapture the spirit and atmosphere of the grand events that took place in the Georgian Assembly Rooms.

We are always looking for opportunities to dance, so if you are interested in having us perform for you, please do contact us. We are amateurs and have no fixed fee but usually negotiate a contribution towards our expenses. We dance to the music of the great baroque composers, such as Bach, Handel, Lully, Mozart, Purcell and Rameau, and will bring this on cd, however we sometimes dance to live musicians, and can provide professional musicians at their daily rate.
