Northern Soul Weekender 2026The 18th Bridlington Northern and Modern Soul Weekender takes place on 26, 27 & 28 June 2026. This event regularly attracts an attendance of over two thousand souls into Bridlington, situated exclusively in the wonderful Bridlington Spa using 6 rooms all under one roof for easy movement for those who want to try the full experience of rare soul music from the last 8 decades! The event is principally focused on using Yorkshire based DJ's, although not exclusively. The 6 rooms offer a wide choice of styles of American black music from the early rhythm and blues sounds of the late 1950s through to the early 1960s with gritty vocals and hard hitting rhythms. There's a nod to the classic soul of the Motor City in our Hitsville Cafe sessions, as the rare and not so rare rub shoulders, as the DJs keep the dance floor full. Our Modern Soul room is rated as one of the best in the country, with DJs playing everything from the mid '70s right through to the soulful newly released sounds of 2026 and everything in between. If you like your soul "rare" then our Rare Soul room is exactly what it says on the tin, with DJs playing obscure 45s from small labels from the industrial heartland of the USA, unissued tracks that only exist on one off acetates. These discs fetch thousands of pounds when, and if, they ever surface for sale, with DJ's and collectors splashing the cash to obtain these exclusive tracks. Our 5th room is opened up to small soul clubs from throughout the UK, these clubs help us raise money for our chosen charity, Bluebell Wood Children's Hospice, based in South Yorkshire by running events where the DJs give their time for free to raise money. The East Coast Soul Collective is proud to have raised over £88,000 so far for this great charity! Finally we have the jewel in the crown with the main ballroom, which features a large maple sprung dance floor, which was once the largest in Europe! This is ideal for our Northern Soul dancers and you'll hear quality records from the mid to late '60s and a smattering of quality '70s Classic sounds from the great Northern clubs like Wigan Casino, The Torch, Top of the World, Stafford etc. During the weekend there are dedicated sessions, like Cleethorpes Pier, which recently celebrated the 50th anniversary of its first all-nighter! Plus many others. Our ladies DJ sessions was the first of its sort in the UK! There will be over 50 DJs playing over the weekend in the 6 rooms with people attending from all around the UK and indeed Worldwide, such is the appeal and quality of the event. Over 100 hours of music for the unbeatable price of £40 for a weekend ticket! https://www.soulinallareas.com/bridlington-weekender
