The flagship weekender runs from Friday 2 October through to Sunday 4 October 2026. Expect a solid programme of club nights across the weekend at one of the UK's most iconic venues. This is a 18+ event, so it's adults only—no compromises on the dancefloor atmosphere.
The vibe
Winter Gardens is a proper old-school ballroom venue with serious character. Three days holed up here means you'll get that immersive festival energy without having to camp—think continuous beats, sweaty dancefloors, and people who actually came to dance rather than pose. It's the kind of event where you lose track of time between sets.
Getting tickets
Early bird and weekend passes are available through the usual channels. Prices typically range across tiers depending on how far out you book. Since this is Clubland's flagship event, expect it to sell steadily, so grabbing your ticket sooner rather than later makes sense. Check the event page for current availability and pricing.
