The ‘much loved’ Northern Soul night to make a single return

A Northern Soul night to take people on a trip down memory lane is coming to Coalville. It will be the first time the event has been held in nearly 50 years.

Tiffany’s Motown and Northern Soul nights were a big draw at Coalville’s Grand Ballroom in the 1970s, playing some of the genre’s biggest hits to Leicestershire audiences. The Grand Ballroom has since become the Emporium Nightclub, with Northern Soul not on the playlist for many.

However, organizers are bringing back the ‘much-loved’ event for a one-off special night in August. It is an occasion that is said to bring back memories for many and allow others to take a trip back in time.

The special event will take place in the Emporium’s main hall and will see Northern Soul and Motown classics played back to back. One of the original DJs of the Tiffany nights, Richard John, also returns for the unique occasion. Others on the bill include Colin Douglas and Mark Darcy, Woza Bennett, Andrew Sharpe and James Weston.

Tiffany’s Northern Soul and Motown night will take place at the Emporium nightclub in Coalville’s Belvoir Road on Saturday 31 August. It will run from 7pm to 1am, with more information, including ticket prices, available on the Skiddle website. Tickets can also be purchased at the door in the evening.
