Our special Christmas Ball edition of Bishopsgate Ballroom is on a Saturday, and runs for half an hour longer than the regular events, so you can get fully into the festive spirit (and yes, the Christmas trees will be up).

Bishopsgate Ballroom welcomes dancers of all levels of confidence and experience, whether you lead or follow, for a relaxed evening of social dancing. We also provide dance hosts so everybody can find a partner.

The ball is hosted by teacher and raconteur extraordinaire Nick Miles (Star Dance Club, London Globe), who will then play the best Ballroom and Latin tunes to get you on the floor and keep you there.

We want our evenings to be truly social, ensuring all newcomers and regulars feel at home and get to dance, whether or not they bring a partner.

That’s why there will be dance hosts at every Bishopsgate Ballroom. Look out for these friendly faces, ready to welcome you and help you get on the floor. Whether you’ve come alone or with a group, everyone’s welcome to dance with our hosts. Now there’s no reason to be a wallflower, unless you want to be…

Practical Information

• We want you to relax and enjoy the evening, so there is no dress code beyond no sharp heels, please.
• We run a card-only bar and also provide free drinking water, so bring your reusable bottle and help yourself.
• Please don't bring your own food and drink into the event.
• We don't have a staffed cloakroom for this event. Please use the rails in the Boardroom suite located just before the Great Hall doors to help keep the dance floor clear and safe.
