The world-famous Hogmanay Snow Ball #Ceilidh is back for a 9th year! Two glittering ballrooms, two live top ceilidh bands... and an atmosphere like no other event!
Run by an award-winning local team, the big ceilidh has frozen its ticket prices for a few years - they start at just £49.99 - and you can even opt to pay in two instalments!
The two dazzling ballrooms of the historic Assembly Rooms Edinburgh are dressed and lit in a magical winter theme - you'll be dancing under the city's grandest chandeliers!
It's a real ceilidh! It's loved by experts and beginners (as dances are 'called' or guided) but it's also a night of huge glamour and the perfect occasion and setting to dress up and shine after all the recent woes we've had!
Simultaneously in each ballroom our very carefully chosen live bands will entertain and lead you through reels and romance as you dance your way towards a new year!
One ballroom has a traditional style ceilidh all evening, while the other palatial room has a contemporary ceilidh later becoming more of a glamorous discotheque. Both are fab fun!
Options: VIP Lounges and Friends & Family Tables of 10 - but be quick for these!
