English Disco Lovers at the Pride pleasure Gardens

Want your disco fabulous, fun and with a sense of sparkling social cohesion? Then the English Disco Lovers will deliver as they head to Brighton Pride’s Pleasure Gardens and the Pride Pavilion for a night of partying with a conscience. A grass roots social movement and community group with over 64000 Facebook likes, 10,800 Twitter followers and a monthly RadioReverb show, the English Disco Lovers have perfectly reclaimed, redefined and Google-bombed the acronym ‘EDL’ through the medium of Disco. Using humour and reflecting the black, Latino and gay roots of disco, so often overlooked by the mainstream, the English Disco Lovers draw perfectly on the positivity of Disco. By tackling Islamophobia, racism and refugee issues in an engaging and unusual way, the English Disco League are spreading a message of equality through music, fun, wit and positive activism. Activism praised by The Guardian, as “a fine tribute to disco’s subversive utopian vision”. The English Disco League will bring the heart and soul to partying to Brighton Pride this summer, promising a night of disco classics and loved up clubbing. But when you’ve broken down barriers and partied across the UK at venues and festivals including at Dalston Superstore, Shoreditch Butchery, The Prince of Wales, The Green Door Store and The Brighton Fringe Festival with guest DJs including Ashley Beedle, Simon Lee, Deadly Sins, Yam Who?, Rory Phillips and Sam Moffett, a night of pure disco fabulousness is glitter guaranteed at Brighton Pride’s Pleasure Gardens this Pride Sunday. English Disco Lovers. Disco dancing for change, one beat at time. English Disco Lovers Pride Pavilion @Pleasure Gardens The Old Steine, Brighton BN1 1GY Sunday 7th August 2016 /6pm – 10pm
