 Friday - The New Dance Moderno with SERGIO MENDES, ALOE BLACC & BAXTER DURY
Catch the new beats and feel the rhythms. Authentic Brazilian carnival music, the deepest of deep new soul, Baxter Dury’s offbeat electronic pop-ska and the sound of new London from Buster Shuffle, the bastard sons of Blur and Madness.
 
Saturday - Thank God It’s Saturday with CHIC , CAMEO, BETTY WRIGHT & ALICE RUSSELL
Head to the dancefloor, it’s handbag central! The funk and flirtation starts here with anthems, soul legends, disco icons and soul voices to tingle any spine. Work is over; it’s party hearty time… and then some!
 
Sunday - Easy Listening Sunday with NOUVELLE VAGUE, SWING OUT SISTER & ST ETIENNE
 Big bands in an ‘80s style, a fashionista sketch of Paris and a celebration of very, very English pop music. Lazing on a sunny afternoon could never be any easier. Lie back and think of England.
 
Plus all the specially curated entertainment taking place in our 5 Vintage Nightclubs; The Torch Club (30/40s), Let It Rock (50s), Leisure Lounge (60s), Soul Casino (70s) and Warehouse (80s).
