The Emporium is a club located in Coalville, Leicestershire since it started in 1995.
Passion was launched in 1995 by the then club owners Mark Walsh and Eric Schofield, they owned the club and it was called ‘Crystals’ a London promoter called Chris Hall who had helped set up Club UK, suggested changing the name to the Emporium and start a dance night called ‘Passion’ as he had the contacts to book all the big named DJ’s and got the New York Legend ‘TODD TERRY’ to headline the first ever event. JFK played the first ever record at Passion, the night ran from 9-2am it had only one room as the red room was a snooker hall, a sound system was hired as the clubs system could not take the music. Around 700 people turned up on the first night and passion was born.
In 2004, JFK, who had been resident DJ and former co-owner of the club, gave up his residency to further his DJ career elsewhere, although he continued to DJ at PaSSion In 2006 JFK returned after almost 2 years away from the club. Since that time he has been involved with the promotion and running of the club once again. nights.
In January 2012 passion ran a classics night it was almost a sell out night playing trance classics. Clubbers flock from across the country to re-live those cherished Passion moments one more time. The DJ line up was constructed of names from past and present that have played a part in its history. A mixture of old and new residents along with cutting edge new talent.
Room 2 saw the return of Red Room Sessions and its famous residents Nick Correlli (MYNC Project) and DJ Canete.
