Brighton's live music dance club for Eurodancers and Francophiles!
Saturday 14 July 2018
Bastill'Bal
La Fête Nationale - dancing 8 til 11pm
Bal £7.50 with Jeudi Matin, Les Autres, Quatre Quarts, and the Famous Interval Musicians (ceux qui arrivent)
Once in a blue moon the National Day of France coincides with our Bastill'Bal, the end of our season of dancing until after the Summer. We have the musicians, who will afterwards head off to luxuriate in secret French festivals, so come and celebrate! Guaranteed no Marseillaise singing this year, but we'll dance La Republicaine and a few other revolutionary rounds!
If you'd like to join us in a communal meal before the Bal,
come to the Hall at 6.30 for a Vin d'Honneur and bring some French supper
to share with others, not forgetting your own plate & cutlery, drink & a glass!
