** IMPORTANT - VENUE CHANGE **

Due to circumstances out of our control, we have to inform you that VORTEX :: Event 1 has now been moved to Lava Ignite (formally Elements).

The new venue is situated up the road in the main strip of Bournemouth's night life strip with a main arena capacity of 1200.

We have had many meetings with the manager and engineers at Lava Ignite to ensure that the venue exceeds our expectations of what we plan to implement on the night.
Unlike Crank, there is a lot of up-to-date lighting already in place but it doesn't stop there! We've teamed up with one of the UKs finest production companies to install a number of the most up-to-date lasers (costing £16k each!!), intelligent lighting rig, visuals and more. Please rest assure that the standard of production going in to this event will not be effected by the venue change, if anything it meets our requirements better!

We don't want to give too much away prior to the event, but if you've never been to the venue, then here's a little sneak preview of what to expect before we transform what you know as Lava Ignite, to the world of Vortex!

As you may realise it is just under two weeks until VORTEX :: Event 1. It is too late for us to change the wristbands. If you have already bought tickets or are about to buy tickets these wristbands will still be valid admission to the event, even though they'll have Crank printed on them.

A limited amount of tickets are available at both Lava Ignite (coming soon) and Frolic Records. Depending on ticket sales prior to the event, there will be a small number reserved for general sale on the night which will be sold on a first come - first served basis.

Addresses of ticket outlets:

Lava Ignite
Firvale Road
Bournemouth
BH1 2JA

Frolic Records
12 Burlington Arcade
Bournemouth
BH1 2HZ

Sorry for any disappointment caused by this change, as mentioned in the other thread; this decision was totally out of our hands. Crank will be doing a press release in the near future. Please rest assure that we're going to be totally transforming the venue.. You won't even recognise it! =)

The main room! 1250 capacity! There has been over £2k worth of promo in to this event, so let's see if we can fill it! Time will tell =)

Also, just a little teaser.. For VORTEX :: Event 2, we're going to be doing something that other promoters in Bournemouth don't do! Full info will be released shortly after Event 1..

I feel this change is for the better actually, for a start there is no frickin stage for MC or dancers at crank, & it gets un-believeably hot (even when the rooms not that full)

I remember (what it called now Lava) when it was the Cage & Zoo (yes I am that old!!) had my 21st in there it's much better space. I only recently went there for a pissed up night of cheese for a laugh when it was Elements a year or so ago, & it was still a good venue, slinky had a couple of events after the opera house shut & I understand the events went well (although when your comparing to the opera house...)

Nice 1 Vortex, if anything I would say this venue change should encourage people to give it a go, as now coming from a Bournemouth boy, believe, this venue is much much better.

Having gone to bmouth uni for a bit i must say in terms of space elements/lava ignite is heads above crank....plus in crank the mc's have to go behind the dj...unless of course u put a stage on the dance floor...but then it would make it even smaller....def a good change in my opionion...they dnt call it a super club for no reason.... ROLL ON VORTEX!!

Following the closure of Crank, we realise that the sound system was an overall 60k rig. This system was a permanent system as you all know.

Being ravers ourselves, we know that the quality of the sound system is extremely vital! We feel that the sound at Lava Ignite is not up to what we need it for. This is why we've taken actions to get a sound company in to install and maintain a Funktion One system.

If you have any questions, please ask.
