MOTOWN DAYTIME DISCO at The Point Sunderland

The Motown Daytime Disco brings classic soul into The Point Sunderland’s afternoon programme on Saturday 13 February. Starting at 3pm, the event is centred on the Detroit sound and the records that turned Motown into one of the most recognisable labels in popular music.

This is a dancefloor-led event rather than a live tribute show, which suits the music. Motown songs are short, direct and built around rhythm, melody and vocals, so the DJ can move quickly through the catalogue without losing the flow of the afternoon.

Motown Daytime Disco at The Point

Smooth grooves, soul voices and timeless classics from the label’s golden era keep the afternoon firmly rooted in Motown rather than drifting into a general retro disco. The songs may be familiar across generations, but the musical identity stays clear.

Seating is available on a first-come, first-served basis, while the dancefloor remains the main focus. Anyone who wants a seat should bear that in mind rather than arriving late and assuming tables will still be free.

A soul afternoon in Sunderland

The event starts at 3pm and is ticketed. The Point’s city-centre location makes it easy to reach from Sunderland Station or Park Lane, and the daytime timing leaves plenty of room to make other plans afterwards.
