SOUTHPORT WEEKENDER 40, MAY 11th - 13th 2007 (more info as we get it
4 indoor arena's
Arena 1 : The Powerhouse:
If you've never seen the Powerhouse before, nothing can prepare you for your first time. The largest indoor dance room in the UK is an awe-inspiring space and comfortably holds 2000 energetic bodies. A raised stage covers almost the whole of the room's front, enabling DJs and performers to be seen from anywhere. It is flanked by large video screens that feature some mind blowing visuals, adding to the sensory overload created by a huge lighting rig and the legendary sound. Comfortably loud, the purpose built sound system makes you feel like you're blanketed in music wherever you walk, it's clearness and clarity are it's renowned success. When you're dancing to the super soulful house and garage offered in the Powerhouse, you don't just hear the music, you feel it! 'Big is beautiful' could be the motto for the whole of Southport Weekender and nowhere is this more appropriate than the Powerhouse.
Arena 2 : The Funkbase:
Our newly extended home of the urban grooves, the incredibly popular Funkbase covers the finest soul music, hip-hop, R n' B and club classics. A room where atmosphere is everything and the funk is first priority, an elated, attitude free crowd are left to soak up the vibes and dedicate their time to the dance. Featuring some of the most beautiful, sharply dressed movers on any floor, the 1500 capacity room is the home of some of the most impassioned dancers at the whole event. Funkbase regulars include Bigger, Max Rees, Ronnie Herel and The Starlight Crew who have recently been joined by the likes of Trevor Nelson, Simon ' Schoolboy' Phillips, Kenny 'Dope' Gonzalez, Steve Sutherland and Jazzy Jeff.
Arena 3 :
Bacardi B-Bar:
Undeniably one of the keys to the success of Southport Weekender is it's progressive, yet soulfully rooted music policy. Covering some of the most leftfield sounds you'll hear at the Weekender, this rich eclectic stew offers Jazz, Northern Soul, deep house, Latin, soulful garage, broken beats, Modern Soul and jazz funk. Previous guests in this room have included Roni Size, Jazzanova, Nightmares on Wax, Fabio, Rainer Truby and Naked Music alongside regular spinners Snowboy, Gilles Peterson, Kevin Beadle, Collin Patterson and Billy Davidson.
Arena 4 : Connoisseurs Corner:
Through rare groove, disco, soulful garage and 70s, 80s and Modern soul, the Connoisseurs Corner is the epitome of what a soul weekender soundtrack should be. The collective knowledge (not to mention the ages!) of its core residents is ightening. Home to some of the most dedicated players on the UK soul scene, the likes of Gary Dennis, Andy Davies, Terry Jones, Bob Jeffries, Norman Jay and Bob Jones transport both the most hardened aficionados and the awe struck first timers to a unique and very special place.
Arena 5 : The Chill Out Room:
With the standard of music at Southport Weekender being of such an unsurpassable quality, it's hard to tear yourself away from the dance floor even after many hours. But for those that need a break, time to relax or socialise with friends, the Chill Out room is the perfect place. Welcoming and comfortable, this space is decorated in fine style with blissful music provided by Sound Architecture.
Arena 6 : The VIP Room:
This small and comfortable room offers a breathing space for many of our artists and the many VIPs attracted to Southport Weekender for it's relaxed and friendly atmosphere. It houses a small bar, dance floor and sound system that always features a few surprise turns on the decks, although to be fair, you're more likely to see our VIPs dancing with their hands in the air, enjoying the fabulous sounds of our other rooms alongside everyone else.
