@shrikant I may be being a little pedantic, but the answer is the UK, but it isn’t illegal for you to spontaneously dance in a venue that does not have a specific licence for dancing, but it is illegal for the venue to let you.

@james Wait, so if I spontaneously dance at a venue and the venue chooses to ignore it, then the venue is the one in violation of the law? 👀

@james Wait, so if I spontaneously dance at a venue in the UK and the venue chooses to ignore it, then the venue is the one in violation of the law? This has been written and codified as a law? 👀Because, yeah, that would qualify as the answer to this question here.The answer I was looking for is not the #UK but I'll allow it! 😁👍

A: Sweden> Swedes have been banned from throwing shapes in pubs and bars without dance licences since the 1930s... [1]Yes, the Swedish parliament passed a resolution in 2016 to drop the rule but 'a government inquiry concluded in 2018 that the ban served a useful safety function, so should be changed rather than repealed...' [2]🤷♂️Sources:1. https://www.thelocal.se/20160415/jump-around-sweden-axes-bar-dancing-ban2. https://www.thelocal.se/20221116/sweden-could-finally-scrap-its-historic-ban-on-spontaneous-dancing
