'BOOGIE WONDERLAND' is back after our first celebration of all things Disco at the Beehive back in January. Expect a retro discotheque, with all the great sounds, big wooden dance floor, and dazzling lights you'll remember from those brilliant nights out you had back in the heyday of Disco and ’80s dance. On Friday 21st August we recreate the 'Best Disco In Town' with a deep dive into the most iconic tracks from back in the day - in case you were wondering, here's a little breakdown of exactly what you'll be hearing on the night...
DISCO - the lush string-washed tunes with the big production that filled dance floors between 1974 and 1980 - from the underground New York clubs to begin with, then the mega-discotheques around the world later in the '70s...
BOOGIE sums up many of the club dance sounds between 1980 and '86(ish) that evolved from Disco into club music with a more electronic feel, but still with a driving beat and great soul vocals.
This music is so good, it works it's magic for fun-loving people of any age. On Friday 21st August, we give you this uplifting, joyous music, and a magical place to dance - Honiton's Beehive. Come and join us for a night like no other!
About the venue: The Beehive's main auditorium has more than 2,000 square feet of dancing space on a well-maintained sprung wooden dance floor. There will be plenty of tables on which to rest your glasses, and plenty of seating should you need to rest yourself! The bar will be open from 6.30pm (30 minutes before the event begins) so you can get a drink and chat before we get you dancing. The Beehive's helpful stewards will be on-hand to assist with just about anything you might need help with.
There is limited parking available, with nearby on-street parking and a public car park a short walk away.
See you there!

Nothing Concrete is a six-piece international band based in the French Pyrenees, led by Scottish songwriter Fergus McKay.
Rooted in original songwriting, the band brings together a wide range of influences, blending blues, world music, jazz, cabaret, folk and swing into a sound that is both distinctive and hard to categorise. Their music is deeply danceable, often witty, and always alive with a sense of mischief and purpose. With sharp musicianship and a strong live presence, they create a genuinely immersive experience that's thoughtful and entertaining.
Their songs often carry a political edge, but never lose their sense of humour or playfulness. That balance of substance and style has helped define a band identity that feels eclectic yet coherent, adventurous yet accessible.
In 2025, they released their fourth album, The Imperfectionist, to widespread praise, with reviews calling it ?a masterpiece? and ?joyful, nostalgic, and just a little unpredictable.?

A new film featuring Chris Packham, leading scientists, a former general and Jennifer Saunders - all being far too frank about where things are heading and what can be done about it.

Dire Streets bring to life the classic songs of one of the world’s greatest guitar bands with a level of
musicianship and attention to detail that makes them the stand out Dire Straits tribute in the UK.
The two-hour theatre show includes faithful renditions of classic studio tracks along with extended
live versions from some of the legendary Dire Straits concerts.
For over a decade, Dire Streets have performed Dire Straits’ incredible back catalogue to thousands
of theatre-goers across the UK.
No other Dire Streets tribute act comes as close to reproducing Mark Knopfler’s distinctive guitar and
vocal tones – making Dire Streets as near to the original band as you can see live.
The six-piece band is made up of some of the country’s top tribute musicians and delivers a stunning
show that fulfils their mission of doing justice to one of the most original and talented bands the UK
has ever produced.
The band makes no attempt to look like the original so no headbands or pink suits, just brilliant
songs skilfully played with the enthusiasm and respect they deserve.
About Dire Straits
Dire Straits were one of the major guitar based bands of the late 70s. Despite forming at the height of Punk, front man Mark Knopfler’s distinctive guitar picking style gave the band an alternative and instantly recognisable sound.
The band reached its peak in the mid 80s playing larger venues including a memorable slot at Live Aid. So far record sales have reached over 100 million worldwide and Knopfler is still regarded as one of the finest guitarists and songwriters this country has produced
