REVELLERS relived the glory days of Northern Soul with a weekender at Blackpool Tower.
The event, which included the spectacle of the World Northern Soul Dance Championships on Saturday night, took place in the Tower’s iconic ballroom and circus on Friday, Saturday and yesterday.

Hundreds of music lovers packed into the attraction to show off their moves.
Among those playing were Richard Searling, Kev Roberts, Ginger Taylor, Colin Curtis, Dave Evison, Chris King, Steve Whittle, Soul Sam, Yocki, Snowy, Keith Fletcher, Sean Chapman, Nige Brown, Pete Roberts and John Poole.
