With the advent of spring (finally!), we are receiving more questions about dance floors. In service to our customers and potential customers, we are posting some of our dance floor expertise below.
For your party or event, the average group can be cut in half to determine the number of couples attending, and only half of the couples are going to be dancing at any one time. Each couple needs-at minimum- 3 square feet for dancing. Don’t worry, you don’t have to do the funky math all by yourself. We’re posting it as a table. We’re just letting you know how we got our numbers:
