Some New Yorkers spent their Fourth of July on a dance floor under the stars. 

Lincoln Center's Midsummer Night Swing attracted professionals and beginners once again. Lessons are available at the event, and the night air adds a little something to the age-old art of dancing, and many say it's an event they plan for. 

"This is the highlight of my year. Actually I come up from Delray Beach, Florida every year for a few weeks just to be here for opening night. I wouldn't miss it for the world," said one woman.

"I feel great. It's my first time. All my friends have come here already last week. So, I didn't have a chance to come. This is my first time. I'm really excited," another said.

The dance party continues until July 11.
