Start the celebrations early with Kidz With Attitude, the hip-hop inspired day-time club for kids and families. Running from 1:30–16:00 on 31 December, this special New Year’s edition promises non-stop tunes, dance-offs, giveaways and games, plus face painting for the little ones and a fully stocked bar for the grown-ups. Expect DJs spinning (non-explicit!) hip-hop, funk and soul classics, and, yes, there’s even a buggy park for tired toddlers.
