In The Spirit Of The Uni 8 Ball Poole Soul

Get ready for a proper old school soul experience in the Bournemouth and Poole area with 8-Ball Poole Soul, reviving the spirit of Dave’s legendary club nights at Bournemouth University. With residents Dave Morris, Steve Malpass, and Stuart Ross alongside carefully selected guest DJs from across the region, this is your chance to hear original vinyl spinning across the full soul spectrum in an intimate setting designed for real dancers and serious soulies. The Newtown’s smaller room features split-level bar seating and a dedicated dance floor where the music takes centre stage, complete with free parking and a chill-out area outside. If you’re ready to get SOULcial and lift the bar musically to the levels the south coast deserves, join La Familia on 21 February, 9 May, 8 August, and 28 November 2026 for a gathering that puts the community first and the dancing second to none.
