This weekend we'll be partying like it's 1999 with our last two parties.... ever.

On Friday we've got Kissy Sell Out, and on Saturday Annie Mac's Radio 1 Tour. Both parties are at the Consortium and we'd love you to be there so we can say thanks, and goodbye ;-)

Invite your buddies, let's make this (another) weekend to remember.

You can buy tickets (no booking fee) from the Consortium Store and Bar, or from their website www.consortium.co.uk

See you there for one last drink (or three)...

Have I missed something? Last 2 parties.........EVER???

We just decided that it's time for a rest... and rather than get sucked into doing more parties in the new year now seems like a good time.

Spread the word and let's make it special :-)

Gutted! I only got to go to one maison and it was wicked! Will be there on Saturday for sure!

as the only birthday party i've ever missed was number 10... I may be sick as a dog... but by odin, I'll make it to kissy! Sad day for Bournemouth.

Sad day for Bournemouth.

Don't be sad... let's celebrate! We've had a pretty amazing ten years :-)

I just wish all the amazing people we met along the way could be there for one last hangover...

Cliff, just like to say Yousef NYE a couple of years back, and clive henry experience was amazing. Thank you for bringing that into my life. Hope all goes well for your new ventures in the future, and your dj'ing career.

Thanks for Annie Mac for my birthday this year (although trying for Glasto tickets the next day was that much harder!!) and for the Lost Disco at Bloom - my favourite weekend of 2007!

Will you not be doing anything at Bloom next year then?

Well I think that it's a shame Maison will be no more. I was lucky enough to go to a fair few parties and always had a wicked time! Met so many peope through it, so thanks to the Maison crowds that made it amazing and of course thanks to Cliff!

Will you not be doing anything at Bloom next year then?

Not sure yet... we might do the occasional festival but no plans at the moment.

Awwwww.......I really hope so! ;D

Respect to you Cliff, putting the work in for 10 whole years, god I would of been 12 for your first party! I will do my best to get down there Friday with Mr Dubyah

one of my first Bournemouth clubbing experiences was Maison@The Showbar, loved it and have loved all the parties ever since!! Definately an end of an awesome era, if its got to end then lets end it in style!!!

i had some of my best nights ever at maison, the show bar nights were legendary. i remember my brother and his uni mates goin in the early days ... its my brother birthday this weekend, so ill see if i can get some of the old codgers down for one last dance !

all good things have to come an end i suppose, still sad though .... happy days

so ill see if i can get some of the old codgers down for one last dance !

do it!

Does that make me an "old codger"?

Ah well.

My top 3 maison memories...

1) being right at the front all night watching Tom Stephan abuse this new fangled CD deck thing called a C D J... and dancing my ass off.
2) The Glimmers @ the showbar - a magical night
3) Richard Scanty - the crazy after party where he started doing close up magic, without most people realizing who he was

Ahhh... good times.

I think some of my highlights include:

1) Paul Woolford's first visit
2) Layo & Bushwacka's first visit
3) Erol's first visit
4) Lottie & Groove Armada at the Lighthouse in Poole on New Year's Eve
5) Justin Robertson - pick a night... he's been amazing every single time
6) organising the re-build of the DJ booth at the Showbar (special thanks to Charlie and friends for working through the night!) so X-Press 2 could do their thing
7) Ralph Lawson and the 2020 Soundsystem

Not to mention the countless debauched after-parties / beach drinking sessions / hazy memories.

Happy days...

jeez. cant believe its over for the 3 years or so i went without missing any pretty much it was absolutely amazin. really shocked to see its over

You're not as old as me Luke! I'll be there on Saturday for sure, giving it a wiggle.
Good times dude...

Defo agreeing with Cliff's top 3 (even if i did have to queue for 3 hours in torrential rain for L&B as y stupid mate forgot to buy a ticket!!)

Sad to see it end!
