Alex Mendham & His Orchestra

18/04/2026

Back to Switzerland next month. With hopefully warmer weather!

Very much looking forward to returning to the Waldstätterhof—sun on the lake, mountains all around, and one of the most beautiful settings we get to play in all year. It really is something special.

We’ll be kicking off the 2026 international events calendar with Swingtime Soirées, which always feels like a best start to the season. A full ballroom, the orchestra in full swing, people dressed to the nines and that atmosphere you only seem to get in places like this.

It’s a real sense of occasion—music, setting, and everything coming together as it should.

Can’t wait to be back!

A little music drifting through the ballroom at during arrival cocktails. Everything I Have Is Yours to set the tone with the full orchestra before dinner and a rather fabulous evening ahead. Few places do quiet opulence quite like this.

JUST 20 CABINS LEFT!

As summer approaches, plans are being made — and this year, more guests than ever are choosing to cross the Atlantic in true 1930s style.

This July, Dance Across the Atlantic returns for its fourth edition aboard the Queen Mary 2 — the world’s last true ocean liner — sailing from Southampton to New York City.

With just 20 cabins remaining across the entire ship, this is set to be our busiest crossing yet.

Over seven unforgettable days, our private group will enjoy exclusive ballroom performances, poolside music, elegant soirées, and the camaraderie of fellow travellers who share a love of music, style, and the golden age of travel.

By day, take high tea, lose yourself in a novel, or watch the Atlantic unfold from the promenade deck.
By night, dance beneath the chandeliers of the largest ballroom at sea — as the Orchestra brings the rhythm of London, Paris, Havana, and New York to life.

DONT MISS OUT!

For current cabin availability, pricing, and booking details, please contact our exclusive travel agent, Caroline, who will be happy to advise on remaining room options and group reservations.
