Get the whole family together and dance the afternoon away to the mixing-mastermind, Mark Archer! Playing a specially curated speed garage set, you can expect a big dose of good vibes on a bubbles-filled, family-only dancefloor.

Sound Level
The music level is set and monitored throughout to abide by WHO guidelines. Though quieter than at adult events, it is still loud enough to feel like you are at a club. Most parents do not use ear defenders on their children but if yours are particularly sensitive to noise or if you want them to nap then you might want to consider it.
Photography/Marketing
We may photograph or film small parts of the event and by entering you are giving your permission for these to be used for BFLF promotion purposes
When you purchase a ticket through Eventbrite you will automatically get added to our mailing list so that we can send you any important event information as well as future events. You can unsubscribe at any time.
Just a reminder…
Please be aware that BFLF is designed to provide a family-friendly, authentic club experience and is not a traditional children’s party or disco. There will be no kid’s music, games, or DJ shout outs. The effect is to give families unity on the dancefloor – dancing together. DJs will be announced in advance of each party via Twitter and Facebook but may be subject to unavoidable change.
