Come off at A2 at head towards London. You then want the Blackheath turn-off. Keep going straight through the lights, over the roundabout. Keep going (You will be surrounded by green grass etc. Greenwich Park will be on your right. You will start to go down hill. When you get to the lights at the bottom turn right and follow to the end. Turn left into Greenwich High Road.
You will pass Station and Novotel Hotel on your right and then the National tyre and exhaust place. Venue is next to that.
Park on main road.
Pretty simple - once you have hit the A2 you only have to get off at the correct exit and then take a right and left turn and you are there.
Thanks Russell your a star
Well I personally had a lovely night... great to put some faces to some names and lovely to see a few others again...

A really enjoyable evening - I like the size of venue, the amount of space for each dancer, new faces, mix of tunes, really easy drive from Finchley . Restricting ticket numbers and striving for a male / female balance is a big plus in my book.
Of course, the only problem - it was too brief. I know these venues give you only until midnight or so - and the crew were flying around to clear up after the last dance.
Thanks for all your hard work - I appreciate what you do - I hope you still get enjoyment putting them on. Greenwich Party Night deserves to be one of the "premier" events in the Ceroc calender.

Just got back now. So tired
Enjoyed tonight. I have never been to a venue that has genuinely restricted numbers before. The fact that there were great dancers to dance with with AND space to dance was brilliant.
The music was, well, allright. I knew TWK wouldnt get away with playing his usual Jango music I still quite liked the music. Quite a few of the old faithfulls and quite a few tracks that were way too fast for the heat.
About the heat... . It was very very hot. Apparently the heating had been on all day and into the evening Every time a fast song came on I pretty much ran for the balcony. It happens at many venues though with these systems on timers.
As long as I can find a better way of getting there from Woking I will defo go back. (took me 1hour 45 to go 37 miles )
Fab night Russell. Great dancers, great space, a real treat.
Thanks to all the wonderful dancers who danced with me last night
Sorry to those I didn't manage to dance with enough or even at all (you know who you are )
What a great night i had last night! Thank you so much to all the Greenwich team
So many forumites too lovely to see everyone Wittybird, Silverfox, Gus, Toby, Divisima, Bill, Bex, Simon R, Lory, Kev F, Foxy Lady, Feeling Pink, Sheepy, Chris A, Geordieed, Tiggs, Stewart 38 (sorry if i missed anyone).
Look forward to the next Greenwich party night in December

If so, thanks, I thought they were kinda cool
Didnt like the music far too many 'odd tunes' and very hot/warmOriginally Posted by Paul F
Put the music at Ashton there and it would have been better
Space in a way felt almost too much so one guy who kept spinging all the ladies around at 100mph kept hitting people, i move away for his own saftey
Some lovely dances though

Thank you to all for all our dances! I couldnt possibly list everyone. (I wasnt on top form on saturday (Ramadan Fasting))
Loved having loads of room!
My 3rd greenwich party and each one gets better than the last! Big Thank you to the whole greenwich team
When can I book my Ticket for the next one!
Thanks for all the feedback.Originally Posted by Msfab
As far as the heating. The venue switches it on in Sept and it stays in until spring, on a timer I think . but I will raise it with them again.
Also we are trying very hard to get an "official" extenison to midnight (and beyond if I get my way) but with the new licensing laws just around the corner everything is in turmoil... and the venue cannot get a straight answer on existing licences let alone for an extension. I will push again in the new year.
(Same goes for my Am Dram group council have no idea of the regulations and have told us when we do our Panto we may be breaking the law )
Music - Heard a few comments it was a bit too fast, which I don't agree with, but then again more often or not I was concentrating on the bar and the door. I shall let Dan (or Toby) pick that one up if they want to.
Have to say that when I did get to dance, I got to play around a fair bit - so the music must have been spot on.....then again I am biaised
As for tickets for the next one. SATURDAY 3RD DECEMBER.
Hope to have them ready this weekend

I s'pose loving the stuff that Twk plays I really loved his set which is why Jango is such a wonderful thing... everybody there loves the music and the people so we dont have the non-believers whinging about they couldn't dance to the music..
Thanks for the dance Russell!! Finally got a whole song and what a great dance it was!
Damn! I was too engrossed to notice the pants!Originally Posted by Alykat
Nice top btw!
I had a good night, too many good dancers for me to get round all of them, but I did have to take a few breaks, after eating too much at the noodle bar beforehand

Ok, the trousers passed the test and I'm convinced that they will not cause embarrassment during backhanders and such moves, I'll definitely wear them again soon! I seem to remember you had on some funky trousers too
Why thank you sirOriginally Posted by Seepman
I'm glad I was deemed sartorially sound on Saturday
Must... shop... for... more... dance... outfits...
Most importantly, thanks for some wonderful dances Greg!
Sorry for the late posting but Mrs Par and I where both a little UNDER PAR on Saturday night. Not really feeling all that great we set off from the south coast with high expectations.
we were not let down really good night loads of superb dancersand room to dance.
Our joint feeling of unwell took the edge off our own personal night and I found I sat out more records in one evening than I have during the last six months.
My impression was that some of the music was too fast but not having much energy anyway probably aggravated my interpretation. It was always going to be faster music than jango(of which I am becoming more at ease with) and being a ceroc venue will possibly play a slightly more faster tracks than some other venues but the mix was good and there was plenty of tracks to play to.
I too am looking forward to December 3rd when I hope to be back in full health to dance the night away.
To all the Greenwich team you deserve a big pat on the back for the event you put on especially the male/female ratio, it works out great for all your customers(but especially the ladies who get a better chance to dance all night )
