Shake Boat Party - Round 2!

Shake Boat Party - Round 2! brings an underground house music party aboard a boat at Solent Scene in Poole on 26 September 2026. Following on from the first outing, it again trades the usual club floor for a night out on the water.

On the night

Underground house sits at the heart of the night, played as the boat itself becomes the dancefloor. Being afloat is the real appeal, a compact, close-knit party set against the water and the lights of Poole Harbour. As it's held on a boat, boarding tends to happen at a fixed time, so check the venue's official listing for the latest details.

Getting there and visiting

Solent Scene operates from Poole, a short distance along the coast from Bournemouth and easily reached by train, bus or car, with plenty of places to eat and drink around Poole Quay beforehand. Arrive early enough not to miss boarding, arrange your route home ahead of time, and check the official listing for the most current times, prices and tickets.
