I am very confused by the different costs of weekenders

In this country Modern Jive weekenders are definitely the cheapest and the best value, especially if you do all the workshops (If you just go for the social, you need to cost it accordinly.)

You have to take into account workshops, accomodation, food and music (be it bands or DJs)

Swing events in this country are IMO very over priced compared with the event in the States. Most of which you have to pay for accomodation separately and sometimes without a choice

Salsa, Tango & Rock 'n' Roll are possibly in the same price range

What do you think ??
