Sutton in Ashfield Tutu Tuesday - It's a Disco Party in the Park!

So, ladies and gents, gather round, grab your glitter and your best pink, because Sutton in Ashfield is about to get a whole lot more fabulous. It’s Tutu Tuesday, and you know what that means - a whirlwind of tulle and sparkle, all in the name of dance, community, and of course, good ol' fashioned fun.

Let's be honest, life can get pretty mundane, right? Work, chores, the never-ending laundry basket… *sigh* That’s why Tutu Tuesday is so refreshing. It’s a reminder that sometimes you just need to embrace your inner diva, unleash your playful side, and spin your worries away in a beautiful, fluffy tutu.

And, let's be real, tutus are anything BUT boring. Forget those stereotypical, traditional, ballet-school tutus! Today we're talking **modern tutus** with a disco twist. Think sassy pink hues, shimmering sequins, bold patterns and a whole lotta fluff! We’re thinking voluminous **multi-layered tulle**, perhaps a **feathery** affair, a **slinky satin** with a bold tulle trim - or maybe a **fun, shorter tutu** with a super sparkly belt - oh, the possibilities are endless!

Tutus are about letting go, feeling your most confident and embracing the joy of movement. They’re about expressing yourself through the magic of dance – even if your only steps involve a twirl or two around the park.

This year, Tutu Tuesday is set to be bigger and bolder than ever! We’re having a huge disco party right in the heart of Sutton in Ashfield park. And get this, I’m not just talking about your typical "Disco Inferno." Oh no, no, no. This is gonna be epic.

I’m envisioning giant disco balls hanging from the trees, neon lights transforming the park into a dancefloor, a booming soundtrack of disco hits that’ll have everyone bouncing. We're gonna have a DJ spinning all the classics – Bee Gees, Donna Summer, Gloria Gaynor – you name it!

Oh, and don't forget the delicious smells! Imagine mouth-watering BBQ delights, delicious summer cocktails, ice cream that will melt your heart… it’s gonna be an absolute feast for the senses!

But, even with all the amazing music, food, and good vibes, it's really the people that make Tutu Tuesday so special. Every year, the community comes together to celebrate creativity, positivity and the sheer joy of being a little silly. Whether you’re a seasoned dancer, a complete beginner, or just someone who wants to join in the fun - everyone’s welcome.

Don't worry if you haven't got a tutu. There will be tutus galore available for sale or you can come as you are - your dancing shoes, glitter, and a bright smile are all you really need.

And if you are going for a DIY tutu creation, here are a few top tips for achieving your dream **disco tutu**:

  • Think pink! Don't be afraid to be bold with vibrant pinks. Mix in some other colours for added sparkle – like gold, silver, maybe a touch of hot orange.
  • Layers, layers, layers. The more, the merrier. The bigger the fluff, the better.
  • Don't be shy with the sequins. More glitter means more sparkle, more disco! And it’s ok if they start falling off – it’s all part of the charm.
  • If you're feeling adventurous, make a **tutu cape**. So glam, so cool, so very *disco snail*! (Let's be real, it’s just not a disco party without a reference to our favourite, shimmery disco icon.)

Tutu Tuesday isn't just about the clothes, it’s about the feeling - it's a chance to celebrate ourselves, our community, and all the beauty that dancing brings to our lives. It’s about finding your own spark and shining brightly.

So, if you are reading this - do yourself a favour. Grab your pinkest tutu (and maybe some glitter), head on down to Sutton in Ashfield park, and get ready for a dazzling evening.

It’s going to be unforgettable, I promise. Don't forget to tag us with #tututuesday #discotutu on your social media posts – let’s fill the internet with glitz, glamour and lots and lots of twirls!
