2009 marks the 63rd year of The Nightlighters. The club was formed in the spring of 1946, in West Los Angeles, at the home of Lorraine and Paul Parker. During their black tie dinner party, the Parkers proposed the formation of a ballroom dance club.
The original membership consisted of ten couples who named the group The Nightlighters. They enjoyed formal attire, elegant dinners, and ballroom dancing in an exclusive environment.
The dinner dances were initially held at the Beverly Hills Women's Club. As charter members invited guests to join, membership grew. Soon they needed larger locations, with dance floors big enough to meet the club's requirements
The Nightlighters' tradition has been carried on for the last 63 years with members from all over Southern California attending six black tie dinner dances each year.
Dances are held on the second Saturday in February, April, June, August and October and the first Saturday in December.
For men, the June and August dances are summer formal optional (white jackets).
For everyone... Come with a good appetite and a lot of laughter saved up!

Dancing the night away!
