Why Attend Bayou Bedlam?

  • We are fortunate to have an older hall with a sprung wood floor that was built specifically for dancing.
  • Houston's February weather is normally mild—comfortably cool and sunny.
  • The food! We include home-cooked lunch on Saturday and brunch on Sunday as well as snacks throughout the weekend.
  • We offer the opportunity for callers in attendance to work with the featured band.
  • We strive to keep the price as low as possible without losing (too much) money, and we offer several discounts.
