For one night only, Dumfries’ very own Funktion takes centre stage of Big Burns Supper celebrations this Saturday.
Celebrating five years of their massive club night, founders Lee Clark and Jamie Roy host a one-off special in the spectacular Spiegeltent.
Brothers Lee and Jamie started the successful club night back in 2009 in a bid to bring big names and big parties back to their hometown.
Lee said: “Funktion first started as a way for us to play the music we wanted to hear on a Saturday night.
“It quickly escalated to much more than that and I can’t believe how huge it’s become. We’ve had five years of countless parties, too many guests to lists and plenty of memories.
“We were delighted to be asked to join in the Big Burns Supper celebrations this year. We’ve played in a lot of weird and wonderful places over the last five years but the Spiegeltent is something special.
“It’s a great way to start our fifth year.”
Funktion’s fifth birthday features Chazz and Craig of Deep Fried Soul playing some funky classics, Social Club’s Stav and Struan supplying smooth grooves plus a surprise birthday set from Lee and Jamie.
As an extra-special birthday treat, ticket holders for the Funktion Party also have free entry to the official afterparty at Dumfries hotspot Chancers.
From 1am, Lee and Jamie are taking over Chancers Nightclub with a set and lineup unique to the Big Burns Supper.
Lee said: “Our fifth birthday is set to be one of our best parties yet.
“We’re looking forward to playing some good music and getting involved in one of the biggest Burns night celebrations in the country.
“Tickets cost £6.50 and are available from the Big Burns Supper website and box office now.”
