That's right, Dedbeat is back for another year with another massive line up
to delight any Hip Hop head, on November the 8th, 9th and 10th Pontin's Holiday Village, Hemsby, Norfolk will be home to an invasion force of hundreds of Hip Hop fans, DeeJays, Emcees, Graffers, Breakers, Journos (that's me) and basically anyone else who wants to join the party.
BRAND NUBIAN
FEAT:
And you know how I said breaking, well you have Breaking from Supernaturalz: Dyzze & Jessefecks, Children of the Monkey Basket and Force 10! The organisers ensure us that it will be better and even possibly hotter than the Dedbeat of February. - Riz

After the successful venture of Ded Beat 2, described as "A monster success" - The Face
"If you want a party and not just an event, Dedbeat shows exactly how it should be done" - DJ mag and possibly the best remark "A note to all you other festival organisers - forget the big bucks, just sort the tunes out, and the people will follow" - Sleazenation mag. Well let me also say that "I never heard any bad things about it, I heard nothing but good things and that's why I will be there this time round" Riz-UKHH.com

Still not convinced, well what else do you get?
Your ticket entitles you to 3 days and two nights of music split between three indoor venues. 2/3 nights self-catering, en suite, accommodation ALL with TV. Use of all the Park Facilities including: go-karts track, indoor swimming pool & pool party, games consoles, amusement arcade, pool/snooker rooms, breaking exhibitions, b-boy battles, music workshops by 'Native Instruments', skate course, skate exhibitions, abseiling & commando zip line (seriously), Dedbeat TV & Radio straight to your chalet, 24hr pub price bars! Now have I sold it to you yet or do I need to go back to Wish You Were Here College?
It is probably also worth noting that Dedbeat 1 & 2 both sold out and there were no tickets left if you ain't an early riser! So if you wanna go you better make your move fast!
So how much does this all cost I hear you say, well its priced at a very reasonable £90 plus £5 booking fee. This is really a small price to pay when you are seeing all these guys play, alongside the backdrop of a Hip Hop Hi de Hi! Go on… Ho de Ho… you enjoyed that didn't you?!
For those traveling in groups bookings must be made in groups corresponding to the size of available chalets. These are: 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8 man.
For smaller groups please the DedBeat organisers have arranged a "chalet share" on the DedBeat message board, so what you do there is make some friends and then shack up. Obviously you could also call the DedBeat info line and they tell me they will "hook you up."
So in order to talk to Peggy, Ted or one of the gorgeous Grannies contact the fine people of Dedbeat by calling 08705 331199 - PONTINS BOOKING LINE

Chris Tarrant's got nothing on us! We have two tickets that will get you your chalet for all 3 nights, access to all gigs and events all for free! Basically everything is free so what you waiting for!? Here's what do you have to do?
Answer this question and email your answer to: themessage@ukhh.com

By telephone and/or email. So get your brains out the jar and back in your head, as here's the question…
Q. In Hi De Hi, what colour of Jackets did the entertainment staff wear?
Good luck, oh and if you have entered the competition, I would also advise you to buy tickets and if you win you can sell them to a mate, cos if you don't win, there will be none left and you wont be going! See you there!
