Raver Tots

Raver Tots comes to Network on Sunday 8 November, a daytime rave built for parents and their little ones to dance together. It's a family-friendly afternoon in the city centre, so you can bring the kids along rather than leaving them at home while you head out.

The music runs through classic house anthems, uplifting trance and UK garage, and it's kept at safe levels throughout the session. Ear defenders are recommended, though. It's not just about the DJ set, either: the afternoon is built around a full production, with decor and theming, dancers and performers, and special effects including lasers and a light show. There's a licensed bar for the adults and face painting for the kids.

This Sheffield date closes out a busy end to the year for the promoters, whose schedule has run from an outdoor festival in Hertfordshire to Halloween shows in Wembley, Bristol and beyond. It's their final stop of the season, so it's a good chance to catch them before they wrap up for the year.

Tickets are £19.00, and there are a few things to keep in mind before you book: babies under 18 months go free and don't need a ticket, children under 12 need kids tickets, and anyone 12 and over needs an adult ticket. They're sold through Skiddle and there are no tickets on the door, so you'll need to sort yours in advance. There's a limit of four adults per child, and no external food or drink is allowed inside. It starts at 13:00 at Network, 14 Matilda Street, Sheffield City Centre.
