Sigma delivered the standout performance of We Call It Dance, the three-night dance music weekender held at Butlin's Skegness, with an explosive Friday set that set the tone for the entire event.
Returning for its third year, the indoor festival brought together a large lineup of dance music favourites across multiple arenas, with activities beyond the main stage. The highlight came on Friday night (November 6), when the drum and bass duo took to the decks, delivering a high-energy set that kept the crowd moving and built the atmosphere throughout.
A Strong Start and Saturday Highlights
Sigma was preceded by Low Steppa, whose collection of classic club anthems with a signature twist warmed up the crowd. Saturday (November 7) saw Hannah Wants and Belters Only keep the energy high, with no shortage of big tunes across the weekend.
Another popular attraction was the silent disco, where Sarah Clarke and Counterpart competed for the crowd's attention. Many revellers spent time on the red channel with Sarah, who mixed cheesy pop favourites with drum and bass classics, making the friendly competition between the DJs especially entertaining.
Setting and Atmosphere
The event's setting was a key advantage, with Butlin's bringing everything under one roof, allowing attendees to move between arenas and accommodation without crossing a festival field or worrying about the weather. The venue also offered opportunities to meet new and familiar faces, adding to the festival-like atmosphere.
We Call It Dance provides a festival feeling without the camping, mud, and long walks, leaving attendees wishing they could stay for one more night. The final night on Sunday (November 8) featured a set from Joel Corry, which friends who stayed behind reported was a hit-packed performance.
