Award-winning ‘family rave’ Big Fish Little Fish is launching its first party in Leeds and Sheffield this year. Sheffield's first indoor family mini-festival will be held at Plug on Saturday 9th July, between 2pm - 4.30pm. Sheffield DJ Chris Welch (Sounds Like This // Phonetics) will be playing an eclectic mix of dance music from the last 20 years to a crowd of around 600 parents and their children aged 0 to eight. The Leeds event will be held at The Warehouse on Sunday 11th September, 2pm-4.30pm. Underground DJ Legend Mixmaster Morris will be playing.
The family raves include a multi-sensory dance floor with top DJs playing club classics. Club visuals, bubble machines, glitter cannons and a giant parachute dance help to create the atmosphere of a real rave. As well as a play and chillout area for babies, the events have a high quality themed craft area with a colouring mural and a playdough table.
We caught up with Verena Scrimshire, Regional Manager Yorkshire & East Midlands, and she is really happy to be bringing the social family fun to Sheffield where she worked for a time in her previous life in housing management. ’Sheffield has a great musical history and some fantastic club night so I’m thrilled to be bringing BFLF to the city. I can’t wait to see the families enjoying time together on the dancefloor - happy smiley faces bouncing around is what it’s all about’.Just Music and Just Families will be in attendance for a full report, wonder what Joe will make of it!
Tickets for the Sheffield launch party and the Leeds gig which both have an ‘Intergalactic Planetary’ theme, are now on sale. For more information log onto www.bigfishlittlefishevents.co.uk; www.facebook.com/bigfishlittlefishevents
