We love a dance as much as the next person, but it’s true that too many 3am finishers can start to take their toll. It might be part of the reason why so many day parties are popping up over the UK – from Annie Mac’s ‘Before Midnight’ series to London’s legendary Sunday sessions at FOLD.
Now, one of Scotland’s smallest (and most beloved) clubs is hopping on the bandwagon. Sneaky Pete’s, the 100-capacity sweatbox on Edinburgh’s main clubbing thoroughfare, has just announced a new series of day parties run by ‘Free Time’. The events will ‘feature legendary touring DJs on weekend evenings with an early curfew’ and have announced shows by Charlie Dark, Machinedrum and House Gospel Choir for the coming weeks, with a closing time of 10pm, five hours earlier than the standard lights-on.
The venue said: ‘If you’ve loved Sneaks parties for a long time, but 3am finishes don’t love you back anymore, we have just the thing for you. Our new FREE TIME series of DAY PARTIES feature legendary touring DJs on weekend evenings with an early curfew.’
That basically means you’ll be able to get some serious two-stepping in while also being tucked up in bed with your teeth brushed before the clock strikes twelve. No complaints here.
