Halloween soul weekender with three days of soul, funk, jazz, disco and boogie from DJs across London, Essex and Kent, plus a Fright Night Fancy Dress Party.
Ghoul And The Gang is taking over the York House Hotel from Friday 30 October to Sunday 1 November, a Halloween soul weekender right on the Eastbourne seafront. It runs across three days, and the music leans on soul, funk, jazz funk, disco and boogie, with DJs travelling in from London, Essex and Kent to play.
Saturday night is the weekend's same-day highlight: a Fright Night Fancy Dress Party, where the best costume wins a free 2027 weekender for two. It's the one night where the Halloween theme really takes centre stage, and the fancy dress is part of the draw rather than just an extra. If you're not into dressing up, there's still plenty of dancing to be had around it.
There are two ways to do the weekend. You can stay at the hotel on a package that includes breakfast and an evening meal, which lets you drift in and out of the music without leaving the building. Or, if you're local, you can just grab a wristband and come for the days or nights that suit you best. The hotel is at 14-22 Royal Parade, BN22 7AP, so it's easy enough to get to from anywhere in town.

Weekend wristbands are £35, and since the music runs across the whole three days, that covers you from Friday through to Sunday. Between the DJs coming from across the south east and the fancy dress party on Saturday, there's enough to keep you going for the full run.
