About Dancing on the Carpet

Northern Soul Dancing on the Comedy Carpet was founded in 2015 by Philip MacDougall. It was organised by Souls in Motion UK until 2024, after that Benisoul Events took over.

Benisoul originated in Benidorm in 2014, a five day event held at Benidorm’s best and busiest nightclub in the New Town SINATRAS, supported by various other venues. Enjoy Motown, Ska and Reggae with a strong Northern Soul genre, featuring top DJs from all over Europe.

Benisoul in Blackpool made its first debut at the late May Bank Holiday weekend in 2025. Call 01274 082588 or email benisoulevents@gmail.com for further info.

We went along in 2023 to an event organised by Souls in Motion, and enjoyed a fabulous, hot and sunny day on the seafront –

Wristbands are £5 and available on the day.
