Weekenders

It is important to plan ahead if you are going to fill in that post-Christmas void that comes with the onset of cold, dark January, but those dependable veteran party people Bugged Out! (15 years and counting!) have just the thing to stave off the SAD: Butlins‘ Bognor Regis outpost has been duly reserved over the weekend of 20th-22nd of January for the inaugural Bugged Out Weekender takeover, boasting a line-up of truly ravetastic proportions.

Our boy James Holden brings his own personal free-wheeling hyper-arppegiated take on hedonism to the Friday night kick-off, joining Simian Mobile Disco, Casper C and Matt Walsh on one of the Bugged Out floors. Elsewhere across the holiday camp complex guest hosts like Numbers & Night Slugs, Bristol’s In:Motion, Dalston Superstore and Union have extended their invitations to pet favourites like Hudson Mohawke, L-Vis 1990, Ms Dynamite, Zinc, Shy FX and Joker, with plenty of the usual Bugged Out suspects popping up inbetween: Ivan Smagghe, Andrew Weatherall, Green Velvet, Erol Alkan, Inner City, Martyn, Joy Orbison, Sbtrkt, The 2 Bears, 2ManyDJs, Kevin Saunderson, Justin Robertson, Claude VonStroke, Maya Jane Coles, Eats Everything, James Holroyd and Stopmakingme.

Tickets can be secured for a deposit of just £50, with chalets ranging from 2 to 7 people denominations starting at £139 per person, as well as a VIP package option which houses you in a full-blown hotel for £199: click here for the full breakdown. Rally the troops and wrap up warm, because Bognor Regis in January doesn’t sound like the warmest location on earth!
