So what's your favourite dance floor, I realise it's only personal opinion. I've purposely not asked for the least favourite as that could be a bit contentious

In no particular order

Stoke

Aqua (do they still have soul nights there)

Rugby (both rooms)

Willington

Goodyears

Brighouse Ritz

That'll do for a start, any others worth a mention?

Snooks in Raunds! Sooooo good.

was never a dancer , but best i tried on was manchester ritz

Can't make the pic any bigger so can't read what it says above the door, where is it?

Just thought of another one I like, the Parkway club in peterborough

Winnie, Riley Smith Hall is at Tadcaster, nr York

I'm the type of person who can dance on barbed wire if a song I love is played, but I do like Rugby, Radcliffe and Easington dancefloors

Heres the Dancefloor @ Easington welfare Hall, we`ve had many guest dj`s from around the country and there first comments are allways WOW!!!. Its getting on for 200sq metres of wooden sprung dancefloor.

Ritz @ Brighouse -

Soul Sam would be a definite and if it doesn't fall on the same night as snooks in June, then that's a strong possibility

Just checked and sadly it does clash June 9th. I really would have liked to go have gone to Snooks that night too .. Doh ..

Empire Hall in Southampton has a pretty good large dance floor as good as Rugby imho, Wilton superb, Lifeline, Bisley sometimes. Kent soul Club to name a few

nuneaton co-op - Awesome dancefloor

No worries Richie, I'll get there for either Sean or Moldie's night

Absolutely exquisite floor, and any night that had Rixy as a resident was going to be a winner

And I'll be coming along to have a jig about to Ted's spot

As far as nighters go Wilton is good, as is Lifeline and Derby Assembly Rooms (especially the second room).

Soul night wise Burscough is great!

Sheff city hall was great on the main floor.

worse floor 100 club

As you've brought up 'worst floors', can't agree with you about Sheridans being a good floor (and I loved the venue) when the condensation hit it, it became like an ice rink. I liked the little floor in the other room and actually don't mind the 100 club dance floor either

Sure Steve'll find the picture, but

Heywood takes some beating...

but thats what i like ...ice rink every time

Definately "The Wilton" for me, even though i tripped on some talc the first time i ever walked across it many years ago. (You really did'nt need talc) Broke my wrist....where was all the "Where there's blame there's a claim" people back then eh?

Also agree with Tony P (for once) Heywood Civic! and with Joan Burscough Legion.

but thats what i like ...ice rink every time

I went to Bridlington for first time last year and nearly slipped flat on my ar$e as soon as I stepped onto the floor in the main room . Was a great floor though once I got my Bambi balance back

Nowt wrong with 100 club floor.!!! Just need to "learn" it.

I never minded the 100 club dancefloor when I was there, certainly never stopped me from dancing

Best one in Sheffield K G B in the 70,s a real sprung dance floor

No brainer really. Bridlington Spa.

Almost brand new, air conditioned (note the grills around the side), seen the roof?

Also in a stonking venue right on the East coast seafront.

Might be seen as a little biased as am involved with the venue in a small way but it really is a stunning dancefloor.

That is pretty impressive I must say. Imagine it full of like minded folk dancing to Eddie Parker
