Guests can get ready to step back in time and experience a dance party like no other in this atmospheric, historic venue.
The iconic Old Fruitmarket, with its stunning cast-iron balconies, high ceilings, and original signage from its days as a bustling market, will be transformed into an epic dancefloor complete with a bar, nightclub-quality lights, and eye-popping visual effects. This isn’t your average night out, this is a silent disco extravaganza, with three DJs spinning non-stop throwback hits from the 80s, 90s, and 00s. Whether you're planning a night out with friends, colleagues, or even celebrating with a hen party, this retro silent disco promises a fun and memorable experience for everyone.
Each DJ will be playing live, and with a flick of a switch on your wireless headphones, you can jump between your favourite decades. Experience the surreal spectacle of a room full of people dancing and singing along – yet, to an outsider, it’s all happening in complete silence! It’s hilarious, energising, and something you must experience.
“We’re thrilled to bring our retro silent disco to The Old Fruitmarket in Glasgow,” said Alexis Tobin, Head of Operations and Production for XL Event Lab who are putting on Amazing Silent Discos: Retro Silent Disco. He added: “Scots really know how to throw a party, and we couldn’t think of a better place to bring our unique event than this iconic venue. The combination of the venue’s incredible atmosphere and timeless hits from the 80s, 90s, and 00s will create an unforgettable night of dancing and fun.”
