The Wigan Casino was a nightclub in Wigan, England. Operating between 1973 and 1981, it became known as a primary venue for Northern Soul music. It carried forward the legacy created by clubs such as The Twisted Wheel in Manchester, the Chateau Impney (Droitwich), the Catacombs (Wolverhampton) and The Golden Torch (Tunstall, Stoke-on-Trent). It remains one of the most famous clubs in Northern England. The club closed on 6 December 1981; that final night of Wigan Casino in its Northern soul state was DJ'd by Russ Winstanley, and the famous '3 before 8' were played three times consecutively at the end of the night. The crowd refused to leave; according to Winstanley, to "break this spell of hysteria", he picked a 7" at random from his box and played that. This final Wigan Casino song became one of the most famous Northern soul songs of all time, Frank Wilson's Do I Love You (Indeed I Do).
