Spring Big Band Afternoon Tea Dances

All ages
£9.50 (standard) | £6 (concession) | £5 Local Links

Get your glad rags on and your dancing shoes ready for our big band tea dance extravaganza this April!

With live music from Jon Ritchie and That Swing Sensation, vocalists and dancers, guests will enjoy tea & drinks, sandwiches and cakes served at their table - this is all included in the ticket price. We are also running a licensed bar, where alcoholic drinks can be purchased separately.

The Platform auditorium is transformed with tables, giant disco ball and lighting to create a wonderful atmosphere.

A friendly informal event, join us for some dancing but if you'd rather watch, just take a seat and enjoy the live music, entertainment and atmosphere.

For group bookings please contact tickets@platform-online.co.uk

The auditorium is fully accessible. More details here.

Thank you to the Murgitroyd Foundation for supporting and funding these tea dances and the autumn 2025 tea dances at Platform.
