The two white cabinets that were at the (now closed) Namco Funscape Waterloo/County Hall, moved to Namco Romford.Management there kindly allowed me to host a tournament, but under certain conditions, including a time limit. We cannot overrun this time limit (even if the machine(s) get put back to regular coin mode).
Therefore I had to set a 16 person limit for double elim.
16 player double elim.

£5 entry to cover rental fee and prize pot.
Sadly all spots have now been filled!

ITG Christmas Tournament Italy – DDR Extreme 20th Anniversary Edition – 2002/2022
2022-12-10 13:00 - 2022-12-11 03:00 | La Grande Mela, Via Trentino, 1, 37060 Sona VR, Italy
Hello everybody!The team North-Italy is happy to announce you that even this year we’ll have the unmissable ITG Christmas Tournament at C.C. La Grande Mela – via Trentino 1, Sona (Verona – Italy)!
The date is December, Saturday 10th 2022; and the confirm will be set as soon as possible. Why announcement so early? For the high turnout we had in both Christmas 2021 and Rodeo 2022 (another tourney in the South-Italy), we’re expecting lots of people, foreigners too, and we want to give you enough time to organize.
We’re enthusiastic to announce the theme of the event! Corresponding to 20th anniversary of DDR Extreme’s release (Christmas 2002 – Christmas 2022), we’re riding the wave of the more and more resteps that are becoming trendy, so our purpose is a pack of DDR Extreme songs ENTIRELY restepped in according to modern standards, many of which are already famous and existing in modern and trendy packs.
We hope that this original idea might be acting as glue, not only to nostalgic people, but also to players “on point” for the crescent frequency of these resteps!
On behalf of all the staff, I hope you have a good rest of your day, and please stay tuned for more details!

Everything But Expert
2023-07-29 10:00 - 21:00 | Round 1 Millcreek Mall, 825 Millcreek Mall Blvd, Erie, PA 16509
A Teaser…The sun shines down upon the lake shore; and the residents by the bay, quiet and reserved, stride about on foot and on wheels to go away or to go home to their weekend destinations once more…
Late July encapsulates what a perfect summer vacation should be: warm weather, sweets by the water, a six-hour drive from traffic and crazies… it’s a break away from the grey or the green and out toward the blue, with the Great North close to your door, and pleasant waters always in view…
Erie is perhaps a venture not exactly exotic to the four-panel traveller, but more likely off the beaten path. However you get here, remember to bring everything along with you. Everything… but the Expert chart.
Event Info:
“Everything but Expert” is a one-day, intermediate-difficulty local DanceDanceRevolution (DDR) A20PLUS Single tournament at Round1 Bowling & Amusement in Millcreek Mall, Erie, PA.
It will run all day Saturday, July 29th from 10 AM to 9 PM (EDT).
