I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'industrial locations' is the definition.
'workshops' can be an answer for 'locations' (workshop is a kind of location). I am not certain of the 'industrial' bit.

'factory dances' is the wordplay.
'factory' becomes 'works' (eg a steel works).
'dances' becomes 'hops' (hop is a kind of dance).
'works'+'hops'='WORKSHOPS'

'for the' acts as a link.
