In challenging economic times, we are all forced to carefully consider where we assign our leisure time dollars. For families, this can often mean omitting creative activities for the kids, as these are traditionally more expensive than other leisure time activities. At Pink Flamingo Spiegeland, this issue is front and centre in our commitment to accessible arts for young people. That's why we have tickets to all performances of our feature-length family show, Circus Fun House, priced as low as $25 per person (based on a family of 4). So during these tough economic times, let's keep the magic of live entertainment alive. https://lnkd.in/g_9XwN3M

🎶 "I am on the floor tonight, I feel like singing..." Last night, Dobie Gray's anthem reverberated through the packed Wolverhampton Civic Halls as Northern Soul Orchestrated wowed an ecstatic audience. With #BBCRadio6 Music’s Stuart Maconie hosting, the tour launches to ride the wave of its recent success at the #BBCProms. Northern Soul is more than just music; it's a vibrant culture of dance, fashion, and community. Those legendary nights at the #TwistedWheel, #BlackpoolMecca, and #WiganCasino were about coming together, united by a love for soul-stirring tracks—and last night encapsulated that spirit perfectly. But as we revel in the nostalgia, we also ponder a crucial question: Is Northern Soul merely reliving its golden days, or are we witnessing a vibrant regeneration? Here’s how the experience economy and cultural industry could help #KeepTheFaith and the Northern Soul movement alive and thriving? Why not embrace immersive experiences like Netflix's Bridgerton ball or Secret Cinema, Northern Soul events could transport attendees back to the iconic days of its most celebrated venues. Interactive narratives where attendees play roles within a meticulously recreated 1960s and '70s soul scene, coupled with workshops on dance, vinyl DJing, and fashion, can offer a full-sensory journey into the past. This not only blends education with entertainment but also connects participants to the movement's cultural impact more deeply. As Northern Soul continues to fuel passions and fill dance floors, these initiatives could ensure it not only survives but evolves with each spin of the turntable. What other ideas do you think could help propel Northern Soul into the future while respecting its rich heritage? #NorthernSoul #MusicCulture #ExperienceEconomy #CulturalRevival #InnovationInMusic #ImmersiveExperience #KeepTheFaith #WildThoughts #OutOnTheFloor #WiganCasino #Wild #MomentsThatMatter #ThoughtOfTheDay #EventIndustry #Activation #EventActivation

How can a rehearsal be silent? With Team Rock’s innovative rehearsal stations, everything is headphone-based. This means our non-musicians can focus entirely on our tablet-based tuition system without any distractions. When it’s time to rehearse, the entire band can hear each other clearly through their headphones, allowing us to teach multiple bands simultaneously.

🌙🎢 Universal is doubling down on after-hours events! Universal Studios Hollywood just released tickets for Fan Fest Nights—a separately ticketed event packed with immersive experiences from Back to the Future, Star Trek, Dungeons & Dragons, One Piece, and more. This is yet another example of the day-parting strategy we’ve seen at Universal parks. By monetizing different time slots separately (Halloween Horror Nights, Disney After Hours, now Fan Fest Nights), parks can: ✅ Drive incremental revenue without maxing out daytime capacity ✅ Attract different audience segments (hardcore fans, IP superfans) ✅ Create high-margin, limited-time experiences that build demand Check out the article for more details!
