With summer weekends becoming increasing cluttered with a whole host of festivals, indoor events at holiday parks out of season are a great alternative to avoid clashes and the wonderful British weather.

New for next year - happening from Friday 23rd until Sunday 25th March at Pontin's Hemsby Holiday Centre, Hemsby-on-Sea, Norfolk (near Great Yarmouth) - is BLOC Weekend, an evolution of Brighton club night BLOC.

It has three days of independent electronic music, with three arenas - two open till 6am on the Friday and Saturday nights, as well as open on the Sunday, and the third running 24 hours each day.

The line-up promises to have 60+ international acts, featuring but not limited to: Kool Keith / TTC / Pest / Silicon Scally / Clark / Wevie Stonder / Iration Steppas / Plastician / Digital Mystikz / Exile / Dead Silence Syndicate band / Dylan / Technical Itch / Noisia / Disco D / Aux 88 / Marco Passarani / Jerome Hill / CJ Bolland / The Advent / Cutlass Supreme / Alex Smoke / Vector Lovers

The full line-up will be announced on Monday 30th October 06.

The self-catering chalet accommodation is fully equipped and the holiday park also has bars, swimming pool, go-karts and lots of other holiday treats.

Tickets cost £105 per person, but bookings are required per chalet, which are 4 to eight people. Call 0870 604 5606 to book (Mon-Sat: 8:30am-8:30pm, Sun: 9am-5pm) and quote reference 'BLOC'.
