It ensures that your sound is clear, precise, and delivered with minimal latency, creating an immersive experience for both you and your audience.

Tidy 30 Weekender Festival (25th - 28th April 2025)
Tidy 30 Weekender Festival (25th - 28th April 2025)

About Tidy Faithful and intergalactic party people of the universe, Tidyland proudly present a new chapter in their Weekender journey. Join them on 25th, 26th and 27th April 2025 as they descend to Park Dean's Vauxhall Holiday Resort in Great Yarmouth. This is the return of the much loved Tidy Weekender, where they will be celebrating their 30th anniversary. THE FUTURE IS OURS For pictures & more information, please visit https://www.tidyweekender.co.uk/ DJs Eddie Halliwell / Lisa Lashes / Kutski / MARK EG / Signum / Rob Tissera / Anne Savage / Lisa pin up / Andy Farley / JX / Ben Stevens / BK / JP & Jukesy / Amber D / Ali Wilson / Jon Hemming / Discam / GENERAL BOUNCE / JOE LONGBOTTOM / lee haslam / Jon BW / Lab 4 / Matt Smallwood / Guyver / Tom Berry / Kid Dynamo / dark by design / Flash Harry / Kym Ayres / Eggman / Hayz / Bryn Whiting / Luvstruck / Miami House Party / Ian M / Jodie Rose / Drax Nelson / Leigh Green / Ben Kaye / S.H.O.K.K. / Andy Roden / Eoghan Tomas / Johnny Dangerous / JMF / Sam & Deano / Lee Pasch / Brain Bashers / Lynne Queenie / AFD / K Series / Hyperlogic / Spencer Green / Shaun M / Jas Van Houten / DJ Danny Burch / Gridlock 3000 / Paul Janes / Jon Bishop / Ingo / Riley & Durrant / Poggy / Beako / Zander Club / Smokin Bert Cooper / Paul Maddox / Benedict Brothers / The Tidy Boys / Anto startColorChanging('.dj_name', 1000); // Start changing colors every 1000ms (1 second) IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING THIS EVENT Although we are celebrating 30 years of Tidy Trax and many of you will have enjoyed the Tidy Weekenders before, this event is different to previous Weekenders so please take a minute to read this important information: FAQ's Q. Is this the same site as Pontins? No. This site (owned by Park Dean) is a completely different place. Although it’s still a holiday park, it’s a 5 star resort with a much higher level of accommodation & facilities. This is the new home of Tidy Weekenders and the start of a new chapter. Q. What is the difference in the types of rooms? Park Dean has a very extensive array of accommodation available. All the rooms are of a very high standard and the festival have done their best to group the rooms in (what they feel) are appropriate grades of the accommodation, however there are slight differences within these groups. The rooms are allocated on a first come, first served basis so the better grade rooms will be given to people who book early. Q. How are the rooms sold for this event? In the past we have sold tickets to the Tidy Weekenders on a per person basis. At this event we are selling the tickets on a PER ROOM basis. It’s completely up to you how many people you bring with you, however you can only bring people up to the maximum number of beds in the room you have booked. This means if you want to bring just two people and have space you can do (but you will pay more per person for the room) and if you fill up all the beds, it will work out cheaper per person. Q. I booked for the postponed Tidyland Wet & Wild Weekender due to take place in 2024. Can I come to this event? If you booked for the postponed 2024 event and requested a refund, you will have to book your place as normal. If you booked and retained your booking, one of our customer service team will be in touch to discuss your options for this event. For full event FAQ's please see the official Tidy Weekender Website: tidyweekender.co.uk ROOM INFORMATION Standard Ticket (from just £150 per person) Mobile Home Accommodation.
