MONTHLY RAVE - APRIL 2024

AGES: 16-19 YEARS OLD ONLY (NO ALCOHOL) HOUSE, COMMERCIAL & D&B

IN NOVEMBER 2023 LAST YEAR, TRUTH COLCHESTER SUCCESSFULLY LAUNCHED AN EVENT WHICH IS NOW BEING HELD MONTHLY, FOCUSING ON TEENAGERS AGED 16-19 / ALL OF THE COLLEGE STUDENTS FROM COLCHESTER AND SURROUNDING AREA'S!! 🕺💃 🎉 APRIL'S RAVE WILL NOW BE OUR SIXTH EVENT AND THEY KEEP ON GETTING BETTER & BETTER!! EACH ONE HAS BEEN A SELL OUT!!

AN INSTAGRAM ACCOUNT WAS EVEN SET UP (truth_16.to.19), SEPARATE FROM TRUTH'S MAIN ACCOUNT (truthcolchester), SO THAT THESE NEW MONTHLY EVENTS CAN BE PROMOTED SPECIFICALLY TO THE RIGHT PEOPLE! 🥳 THE NAME OF THE EVENT IS VERY SIMPLY: "MONTHLY RAVE".... ORIGINAL WE KNOW 😉😎 HOWEVER WE WANT TO FOCUS ALL OF OUR ATTENTION ON THE EVENT ITSELF RATHER THAN ITS NAME 🔥🔥

THE IDEA THAT PROMPTED THE LAUNCH OF THIS MONTHLY EVENT WAS SIMPLE: NO OTHER VENUE IN COLCHESTER HAD BEEN PAYING ATTENTION TO THOSE OF A YOUNGER AGE (WE KNOW... HOW UNFAIR!!) AND WE WANTED TO CHANGE THIS FOR GOOD! TRUTH WANTS TO INTRODUCE THOSE OF A YOUNGER AGE TO SAFE CLUBBING AND SHOW ALL OF YOU HOW FANTASTIC NIGHTLIFE IN COLCHESTER CAN BE! NOW YOU ALL GET TO GO OUT WITH YOUR FRIENDS, DANCE YOUR SOCKS OFF, BE SOCIABLE AND MEET NEW PEOPLE (RATHER THAN SITTING AT HOME ON YOUR BLOODY PHONES ANNOYING YOUR PARENTS LOL 😉😬😏) YOU GET TO DO ALL OF THIS WHILST BEING IN A SAFE AND CONTROLLED ENVIRONMENT (THE MOST IMPORTANT THING) .... IT'S MUCH SAFER THAN ATTENDING A HOUSE PARTY (IT ALSO KEEPS YOUR PARENTS HAPPY) & THE MASSIVE TUNES CAN BE CRANKED RIGHT UP ON TRUTH'S FUNKTION ONE SOUND SYSTEM 🔊🔊🔊 RATHER THAN HAVING A LOAD OF UPSET NEIGHBOURS!!

MAKE SURE YOU BUY YOURSELF A TICKET (AS THERE'LL BE NO TICKET SALES ON THE DOOR) AND LET US DO THE REST.... WE'LL SEE YOU ON THE DANCEFLOOR 🕺💃🔊😍

LOTS OF LOVE, TEAM TRUTH!!
