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.”
80s Channel
Time to tease your hair and bust out your neon leg warmers as DJ1 spins the greatest hits from the legends of the 1980s. Expect a night filled with Thriller dance-offs and Like a Virgin singalongs with tunes from Michael Jackson, Madonna, Prince, Queen, and more!
90s Channel
Feel the 90s vibes as we roll through the best of TRL! Whether you're a Spice Girls fanatic or still have your N-Sync posters up, DJ2 will keep the nostalgia pumping with classic jams from Britney Spears, Eminem, Backstreet Boys, and more.
00s Channel
From the booty-shaking beats of Beyoncé and Shakira to the pop-punk anthems of The Killers and everything in between, the noughties channel will have you vibing to the likes of Usher, Lady Gaga, and OutKast all night long.
Upgrade to VIP for exclusive perks, including priority entry, a glowing accessory bundle to make you stand out on the dancefloor, and access to the venue’s stunning balcony overlooking the action.
This is more than a night out – it’s an unforgettable time-traveling dance party in one of Glasgow’s most unique spaces. Whether you're singing your heart out to the 80s, throwing shapes to 90s bangers, or losing yourself to 00s chart-toppers, this retro silent disco promises non-stop fun, laughs, and memories. The event wraps up at 11pm, making it perfect for catching that last train home without missing any of the action on the dancefloor.
