About The Event

Delighted to tell you we have a fantastic Highland Room event planned for Saturday 19th November 2016 at a new venue, just off Junction 23 of the M6 motorway!
The Mercure Haydock Hotel plays host to the Blackpool Mecca Annual Highland Room Reunion, from 4.00pm until 2.00am!
The event features Northern from the late 60's early 70's with Colin Curtis and Barry Maleady and later from 8.00pm until 2.00am, Mecca from the later 70's including Jazz Funk, Disco and Mecca All Dayer classics! Colin Curtis, Pete Haigh and Andy Lett do the honours!
Check in at the hotel is from 2.00pm and as they are offering 20% off food at the hotel restaurant or bar meals and 10% off all drinks, it seems like a good idea to get there early and eat before the show begins!!
There is also a great leisure pool and gym if you are staying over!
A great rate has been secured on rooms, £55 for a double without breakfast or £65 with breakfast, which is served until 11.30am!
Rooms are available to book now. Please contact reservations on 01942 292004 and say you are with The Mecca night to receive the discounted hotel rate.
PLEASE BOOK EARLY AS THIS RATE WILL ONLY APPLY UP TO ONE MONTH BEFORE THE EVENT, THEN IT'S FULL PRICE ON ALL ROOMS!!
PLEASE NOTE YOU DO NOT HAVE TO STAY IN THE HOTEL TO ATTEND THIS EVENT, but it is a lovely hotel to stay in if you choose to do so.
Highland Room Reunion tickets are available in advance by registering your name with Colin, Andy or Jan at colincurtisconnection@gmail.com andy.lett@sky.com or janbcrowe@gmail.com respectively.

Always a brilliant event - just ask the people who keep coming back year in & year out !!

Added bonus this year of Mecca Memories from the early years - 4:00pm to 8:00pm - possibly the "Golden Age" of Northern Soul  - so many of the scenes most iconic tunes played in that era.

Gettin' closer...10 hours of Mecca Magic! starting from 4 till 8 pm, the Golden Years revisited featuring some of the biggest and best Northern Soul sounds the scene has witnessed, the legendary 'last hour' spins that have since become staples of the modern and crossover scene and from 8pm till 2am remembering the disco funk classics of the late 70's that set the Highland room alight every Saturday night and at those monster all-dayers. Join Us at the Haydock Mecure Hotel for a Night to Remember

Terrific buzz on this now over 1000 views on here, 200 tickets sold looks like it's gonna be a packer :thumbup:

Don't forget come early. proceedings start at 4pm! It's 'Heaven in the Afternoon' with tunes from the 'Golden Years' being played. So expect quality Northern and seventies soul and many of the records first played at the Mecca that went on to become some of the biggest and best known sounds EVER! Then from 8pm the style and sounds change to reflect the changes that occurred in the Highland room with the 'New York' sound coming to the fore but again Curtis and Levine, trailblazin' a path that others would follow...
