THE DANCE PROJECT RETURNS!

November 28, 2023

The seventh Dance Local event returns to Glossop for the festive season

The Dance Project returns to Crystal Ballroom in Glossop on 16th December!   For this event, the gang are welcoming top DJ and founder of Moovin Festival, Herbie Saccani. The evening will be hosted by the original Master of Ceremonies MC Kwasi, aka the Smile Factory. Ravers can expect Jackin House, Acid House, Disco and Piano Dance Classics.

Herbie Saccani is the original founder of the Moovin Festival. He has been DJing all over Manchester and beyond since the early 90s, as is a regular at the Fac 51 Hacienda events held all over the UK. As a DJ, Herbie Saccani has seen it and done it all. He had a teenage residency at the Factory’s Dry Bar in the early 90s, when it was still a revolutionary Space. After the Hacienda and The Boardwalk, Herbie took his talents to Tangled until the 00s. At Tangled, he pioneered a new Breakbeat sound, putting Manchester on the Map for this genre.

MC Kwasi has worked with more artists and DJs than you could imagine. Possibly most famous as Mr Scruff’s wing man, the loveable MC was the host of the seminal Friends & Family events in Manchester, and has been featured on tracks with the likes of Suns Of Arqa, The Messengers, Mark Rae, DJ Vadim and Beatphreak.

The Dance Project’s founder, Carlie Ashcroft, said “This is our 7th party in Glossop; past events have included spots by Julie Wills (Homoelectric), DMC world Champion Chad Jackson, James Holroyd (Bugged Out). Dave Haslam (Hacienda, Yellow), Moodymanc, Jon Dasilva (Hacienda, I Love Acid), Cequin Circus and resident host MC Kwasi (Mr Scruff).

“The December event is shaping up to be a real cracker - come and Dance Local with our crew, topping city centre vibes with the hottest DJs, Performers and MCs right in the centre of Glossop.

The Dance Project takes place at The Crystal Ballroom on 16th December. Doors open at 9pm ‘til late. Grab your tickets by visiting @TheDanceProject54 on Instagram or visit https://www.skiddle.com/whats-on/Stockport/Crystal-Ballroom-Glossop/The-Dance-Project-w-Herbie-Saccani--MC-Kwasi-/36722783/
