Dave Pearce, former BBC Radio 1 Dance Anthems presenter, plays an extended set of trance and progressive dance music with Mark Dickson, Skie and Kel Sweeney.
Dave Pearce is playing an extended set at Black Box Hastings on Saturday 28 November, with Mark Dickson, Skie and Kel Sweeney on the bill. It's a night built around the sound he's known for: the big-room trance and dance anthems that have been his thing for years.
If the name rings a bell, it's probably because he created and fronted Dance Anthems on BBC Radio 1. He's been a fixture of the UK dance scene for a long time, and his sets usually blend trance, electro house and progressive with reworked classics. He also does Pure Trance sets, so the night leans into that melodic, uplifting territory rather than the darker end of the dancefloor.
There's a fair bit of history behind the name, too. He's sold over a million mix compilation albums in the UK and held residencies in Ibiza, at London's Ministry of Sound and at BCM in Mallorca. He's played the major dance festivals, Creamfields among them, and made DJ Mag's Top 100 DJs three times. His sets have also been featured on BBC 6 Music, so he's as much a radio name as a club one.

On the night, he's taking an extended set, which means he'll be behind the decks for a good stretch of the evening rather than a short guest slot. Mark Dickson, Skie and Kel Sweeney round out the line-up. It starts at 21:00 and runs through to Sunday 29 November, so it's a late one. Tickets go from £12 to £48, and the venue is Black Box Hastings, 10 George St, Hastings TN34 3EG.
