UTOPIA

PURE Weekender

PURE is hosted at the 4 star Old Thorns Spa Hotel and Resort nestled in the beautiful Hampshire countryside. Dancers can choose to stay in the hotel and benefit from stunning half board accommodation, with complimentary use of the SPA and Swimming Pool too, or simply visit for dancing by purchasing a wristband only ticket.

​

Dancing starts at 4pm on Saturday and finishes at 2am on Monday. Its the perfect treat to look forward to after Christmas, during the January Blues, which apparently is a common complaint and has nothing to do with dancing!

Dance Spaces

The Hampshire Suite - Utopia / SILC 

 A beautiful garden banqueting room located on the ground floor of the hotel. The Hampshire is a large space but has an interesting configuration which feels like being in a series of  conjoined rooms - it's an unusual layout that should help to create a more intimate atmosphere. There is also a bar in the suite.

The Grand Ballroom - Ceroc / Uptempo 

 This is a large, majestic room with a sunken dance-floor and bar. Professional dance-floor is being paid in this space to make it suitable for the 400 dancers expected to use this zone. This dance space also has its own bar, and will be the main hub of dance classes during the day as well as the home of the dance shoe stands.

​

The Atrium Bar - Blues & Extra Curricular 

This ambient, plush cocktail bar with velvet drapes and soft furnishings has a raised wooden dance floor which will be the Blues & Slow Chill Dance space over the weekend. Steve Thomas will also be hosting the pub quiz in this swanky setting, and we are expecting some eye-catching full skirts for Swingers Hour with Sheena too!

St Andrews Suite - Masterclasses

This is the largest of the rooms in the hotel conference centre and will be used for the small group intensive masterclasses (pre-bookable in advance for resident & day pass / full pass bookers)
