Tickets are now on sale for Christmas at Plas Newydd 2024. Book now to secure your preferred date and time.

Put on your dancing shoes this Christmas. Everyone’s invited to a silent disco in the Music Room at Plas Newydd.

The ‘Dancing Marquess’, 5th Marquess of Anglesey, held his own Christmas party in the very same room over 100 years ago. Our dancing styles may have changed since then but it’s still a great place for a dance. So put on your best party outfit and come and join us this Christmas. From 90s pop to Christmas family favourites, take your headphones and choose your music channel before you dance the day away. 

Book your silent disco tickets today to secure your preferred date and time.
