Boogie Wonderland: Funk, Soul & Disco

About

Boogie Wonderland with DJ John Bongo is a Funk, Soul, and Disco dance night based in the south west, where you can dance your cares away to the classic soul, funk and disco tunes we all love - the big ones from the superstars that make you sing, dance, and smile - unforgettable tunes from across the decades from Stevie Wonder, Marvin Gaye, Ray Charles, Otis Redding, Edwin Starr, O'Jays, Four Tops, Diana Ross & Supremes, Temptations, Isley Brothers, Aretha Franklin, Chic, James Brown, Earth Wind & Fire, Shalamar, KC & The Sunshine Band, Jacksons, Odyssey, Tavares, Donna Summer, Rose Royce, Kool & The Gang, Barry White, Sister Sledge, and many other icons of the funk and soul world.

For one night, Devon Funk & Soul Club's DJ John Bongo turns the amazing Beehive main room into a vibrant space, where we recreate the energy of a 1960s nightclub, the magic of a 1970s discotheque, and the excitement of a 1980s school disco, spinning you back to those joyful times of dancing with your best mates back in the day - this is a kaleidoscopic journey of the most beloved and uplifting funk 'n' soul dance music ever made, cleverly and uniquely weaved together to keep the vibe running at full-tilt all night, right to the very end. It's all about peace, unity, love and having fun! Let's start the dance!

This event is strictly limited to 150 tickets, so please book early to secure your place!

John Bongo is Devon Funk & Soul Club's resident presenter of recorded musical entertainment for parties (what we used to call a mobile disco DJ!). He's no new-comer to entertaining people, having shown party-goers a good time at venues big and small since the early '80's, and for all sorts of public and private occasions such as family celebrations, corporate events, festivals, and alongside live acts and other established DJ's. He loves that thing all (good) DJs love - sparking an exciting vibe with great music, and seeing people dance and have the time of their lives.
