💀🎸 Valley Jive Day of the Dead Rock 'n' Roll Dance! 🎸💀
Dance With the Living… and Maybe the Dead!
🗓 Date: Saturday 1st November 2025

📍 Location: Machen Top Club (Workingmen’s ‘Top Club’, 18 Commercial Road, Machen, CF83 8NA)

🕖 Time: 7:30pm – 11:45pm (doors from 7:00pm)

🎟 Entry: £4 on the door

Step into the afterlife (and onto the dance floor!) at our spooktacular Day of the Dead Fancy Dress Dance. Whether you come dressed as a skeleton, a sugar skull, or just your usual rockin’ self, you’ll be part of a night full of ghostly grooves and toe-tapping tunes.

✨ What to Expect:
Spine-tingling DJ set spinning all your 1950s Rock ’n’ Roll favourites
Jive, Rock ’n’ Roll, Lindy, Swing, Rockabilly & Stroll/Walk – music lively enough to wake the dead!

Beginner’s jive lesson at 7:00pm – we’ll raise your spirits with enough moves to keep you dancing all night

Mia’s dastardly decorations to set the scene – creepily colourful and guaranteed to give you chills (and maybe chuckles)

Cheap drinks at the bar (open until 11:30pm) – even the dearly departed would approve of these prices

Music through until 11:45pm

Plenty of parking right next to the club

A hauntingly friendly atmosphere

🕺💃 Fancy Dress optional – but remember, if your Great-Great-Gran turns up in full skeleton gear, don’t be surprised if she shows you a move or two from beyond the grave…

📅 Every First Saturday of the Month – make sure it’s in your diary!

Valley Jive is the place where the living (and occasionally the dead) come together for one of the friendliest Rock ’n’ Roll nights in South Wales.
