DJ Spoony Presents

A House Full of Garage

The Re-Rewind. The Classics. The Heritage.
The definitive guide to the slickest, most soulful weekend on the Butlins calendar.

UK garage rave crowd with hands in the air at a Butlins Big Weekender

Quick answer: DJ Spoony Presents A House Full of Garage is a UK garage music weekender hosted at Butlins (Bognor Regis and Minehead) curated by Radio 1 legend DJ Spoony, celebrating 2-step, vocal house and old skool anthems from the late 90s and early 2000s. Expect headline sets from the Dreem Teem, Artful Dodger and Wookie, plus a Saturday pool party in Splash Waterworld. Dress to impress — think clean tailoring, gold-print tees, fresh trainers and a glam squad uniform rather than fancy dress.

The UKG Ecosystem

Curated by the legendary DJ Spoony, this isn't just a rave—it's a celebration of British music culture. From soulful vocal anthems to gritty 2-step basslines, the vibe here is slicker, sharper, and more "dress-to-impress" than any other weekender.

The Main Event

Center Stage

The home of the icons. Expect the Dreem Teem, Artful Dodger, and massive live PAs from the queens of Garage. Vibe: High energy, hands in the air.

The Underground

Reds

When the vocal house finishes, the bassline begins. Reds hosts the deeper cuts and the old school vinyl sets. It gets hot, it gets loud, and the 2-step energy is relentless.

Daytime

The Pool Party

Essential. There is nothing like hearing "Flowers" or "Sambuca" while floating down the rapids. Warning: Capacity is limited. Queue early or miss the splash.

Pick Your Look

Old School

The Heritage Flex

The Look: A nod to the Moschino/Versace era. Clean lines, gold chains, and fresh trainers.
Our Gear: Gold-print personalized tees that look premium enough for the VIP section.

The Girls

Garage Glam

The Look: This crowd dresses UP. Heels, hair done, full makeup.
Tactical Advice: Bring "Transition Trainers" in your bag. Walking from the chalet to the Skyline in stilettos is a rookie error.

The Squad

The Crew

The Look: Coordinated unity. You are the entourage.
Our Gear: "House Full of Garage" tour tees with your nicknames on the back. Keep the squad together in the rave.

Strict Rule

The ID Situation

Challenge 25 is strictly enforced. It doesn't matter if you were raving at Sun City in 1999—if you don't have physical photo ID, you aren't getting in.

Accomodation

Gold & Hotels

For this crowd, comfort is key. The Hotels (Shoreline/Ocean) are the move. If you're in an apartment, make sure it's Gold tier for the extra lounge space.

Essentials

The Fan

Reds is a sweatbox. A hand fan isn't just an accessory; it's a survival tool when the bass drops. Don't leave the chalet without one.
