Welcome aboard for the Hilton Head Island Winter Classic 2027
Come catch the breeze, feel the sand between your toes, and dance the weekend away at Hilton Head Carolina Shag Club’s premier event—where Sailboats, Sand & Shag come together for an unforgettable Winter Classic!
Set sail for a weekend of dancing, friendship, and Lowcountry charm at the beautiful Sonesta Resort Hilton Head Island, January 21-24, 2027. “Sailboats, Sand & Shag” captures everything we love about Hilton Head—coastal breezes, sandy shores, and great shag dancing with friends from near and far.
Enjoy a lively Welcome Aboard Party on Thursday night, dancing with Hall of Fame DJ John Smith. Delicious plated dinners on Friday and Saturday, outstanding DJs throughout the weekend, and a spectacular Saturday night featuring the legendary Band of Oz. Gather your crew, pack your dancing shoes, and join us for a weekend where the Lowcountry comes to dance!
Winter Classic Registration
We have improved our registration process with an easy to use system for both online and mail in registration. We encourage using the system for online applications and it also supports those who want to pay by check.
For pay by check, enter the information for all of your attendees on the application just as you would for online payment. The option to print the form will be given after submitting. Payment for all attendees on your application must be mailed together with the order number or printed form included.
Using this process will reduce data entry errors as your application is kept in our system and activated when we receive payment.
You will receive a confirmation email once payment is received and your registration is activated.
You can also print out the application form, fill it out and mail it in as we have done in the past.
(if registering and paying by mail, for peace of mind, please consider
using a tracking service such as USPS Certified Mail or Priority Mail)
