The Zone is a club in Blackpool that first opened in 91 - In fact I've got what I think is the original first flyer. That's about the only time I went myself - to be honest there was some pretty strong competition from other clubs in Blackpool then, most notably Hacketts. It came into it's own when some of the other clubs died a death but the Zone managed to keep the distance.
The Zone was important for keeping the Italian sound alive. Labels like Italian Style, X-Energy that were no longer the main stay of the Northern clubs were / and still are as popular as ever in the Zone.
