About Day Fever
Day Fever isn’t a band or a DJ; it’s a revolutionary concept that has reshaped the landscape of clubbing across the UK. Born from a desire to create an inclusive, energetic dance experience that caters to a slightly older demographic – those who love to dance but perhaps don’t fancy the late nights anymore – Day Fever has become a runaway success. It champions the idea that the thrill of a proper rave isn’t exclusive to the twilight hours, offering a vibrant alternative for those in their 30s, 40s, 50s, and beyond to let loose and reconnect with the music they love.
The “style” of Day Fever is defined by its infectious, feel-good atmosphere and a meticulously curated soundtrack of dance and electronic classics. Expect a journey through genres, from uplifting disco and soulful house to pulsating techno and iconic 90s rave anthems. The “hits” are those tracks that instantly transport you back to legendary club nights, tunes that fill the floor and ignite collective euphoria. While there isn’t a fixed “lineup” in the traditional sense of a touring artist, Day Fever events feature skilled resident and guest DJs who are experts at reading the crowd and keeping the energy levels soaring. They understand the nuances of creating a daytime party vibe, ensuring every beat drops perfectly to keep the ballroom buzzing from start to finish. It’s a movement built on nostalgia, community, and the sheer love of music.

The Ballroom itself is a stunning space, boasting high ceilings, ornate detailing, and a spacious wooden dance floor that has witnessed countless memorable events over the decades.
With a capacity that allows for a buzzing, intimate atmosphere without feeling overcrowded, the Ballroom is perfectly suited for Day Fever’s inclusive ethos.
