Oh, What A Night!
Disco Stu Shares The Stage With
The Four Seasons Tribute
In The Grand Hall
I’m Stuart Thomson, though most of you around Sussex know me better as Disco Stu, the founder of After Dark Disco. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of spinning tracks at some truly spectacular venues, but bringing my signature high-end sound and visual experience to the magnificent Grand Hall alongside an incredible tribute to Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons was an experience for the history books.
The Grand Hall at the Avisford Park Hotel is a DJ’s dream canvas. With its elegant architecture, high ceilings and majestic presence, it demands an entertainment production that matches its scale. For this standout event, I knew a standard rig simply wouldn’t do.
To complement the live tribute act and elevate the atmospheric venue, I deployed my top-tier nightclub-quality setup. Using computerised, intelligent moving lighting and precisely controlled venue hazing, I transformed the historic hall into a vibrant, dynamic concert environment. The goal was to seamlessly bridge the gap between a high-energy live performance and a packed, non-stop dance floor—and the results were breathtaking.
As a professional entertainer, my job here at After Dark Disco is all about reading the crowd and keeping that momentum alive. Before, between, and long after the live sets concluded, I took to the decks to keep the floor packed. I transitioned smoothly from the smooth 1960s doo-wop and rock-and-roll foundations laid by the band straight into timeless party classics, floor-fillers, and modern anthems.
Seeing multiple generations—from those who remember the original vinyl records to younger fans who just love a brilliant melody—dancing side-by-side in the Grand Hall is exactly why I love what I do. There was no cheesy chatter or generic filler; just incredible music, pristine sound quality, and pure celebration right through till 1AM.
Whether you are planning a corporate gala, a milestone birthday bash, or a premium wedding reception, your choice of entertainment dictates the rhythm of the entire night. At After Dark Disco, I pride myself on offering bespoke, five-star experiences tailored explicitly to your unique musical tastes.
