This event will take place in person.
Starting off the evening with a short taster lesson, teacher and raconteur extraordinaire Nick Miles (Star Dance Club, Ballroom Blitz, Royal Festival Hall) will 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…

How we’re keeping you safe
April 2022 update: Keeping you safe and healthy is our number one priority.
If you test positive for Covid-19 or are asked to isolate and are not able to attend your class or pre-booked event, please contact the Bishopsgate Box Office for further information (enquiries@bishopsgate.org.uk). Please do not come to the Institute in person if you have symptoms or have tested positive.
Wearing a face mask is no longer compulsory but we ask you to consider others when in our building and especially when spending time in crowded and enclosed spaces where you come into contact with people you don’t normally meet. You will see many of our staff and volunteers continuing to wear face masks and we are keeping the perspex screens at our reception desks.
Bishopsgate Institute has strict cleaning protocols in place and ventilation throughout the building. There are hand-sanitising stations available throughout the building and touch-free drinking fountains. Find out more about how we’re keeping you safe.
