Another Shopping Mall, I suppose which nobody wants.
Ashtons has finally succumbed to the developers and is closing down for good at the beginning of June.
A great shame as IMO I can't think of a better venue for dancing of that size in London.

Nooooooooooooooooooooooooo
I love Ashtons, especially when I walked in to see it all dressed up on the last one Utopia, I will neaver forget that.
I guess this will the last event there then. It's not on the main events board for some reason, so not very well advertised. (Maybe they are waiting until after May 7th when the prices go up ) I will Miss Ashtons, it's one of the few events I will bother travelling all the way to London for.
It'll be good news to Franco and Vibe though.
Oh boy... Beo might feel he has to go to this one
Be afraid London, be very afraidDress code: Colour compulsory and the more Hawaiian shirts the better
Oh no..............
Where is everyone gonna go then?
Not good news......North London needs a LARGE venue like Ashtons. Ideally (as I have said before) a purpose built air-conditioned place with state-of-the-art sound system.
Now....if there are 300,000 Ceroc dancers - and each contributed c.£20 then we could do it......
It was bad enough when the old hall went but this is just

Are there any plans to find an alternative venue?
Ashton's will always be very special as I met a very special lady there
I will miss this place so much! I work there each weekend too It was the old hall next door where I first started modern jive. I was so upset when they knocked it down and now this.
If anyone misses the balcony then I am sure there will be a chance to buy it at the beginning of June.
The latest Duffy video Mercy was filmed in the Galtymore (Ashtons) you may have noticed the chandeliers (cant spell tonight).
I have so many fond memories of Ashtons and even met my lovely boyfriend there too last year
Well I hope to see alot of you at the next 2 big events there on 23rd May and 30th May to say goodbye to one of the last dance venues standing.
And Mr Byrne if you are reading this please dont knock it down!!! I am sure I can persuade more dancers to buy at least 2 bottles of water each night.
oops just realised 30th May event was nothing to do with Ceroc! sorry was not my intention to advertise other peoples events.
I was there last night and it was a very different atmosphere....there have been numerous petitions but all have failed......it will be a very sad night to say goodbye to Ashtons!
Another historical monument of nightlife past disappears.
Many fine memories - and it was within walking distance of my home....
Ealing and Hammersmith - here I come....
best

How about this..The Royal Horticultural Halls & Conference Centre Westminster, London. Event halls and conference Centre. Exhibitions and receptions.
