It’s not just Glasto taking a fallow year in 2026 – the ever popular Southbank destination Between The Bridges will be taking a year off whilst work takes place on Jubilee Gardens, right next to the Thames. However watch this space – Between The Bridges won’t be gone forever.
With 2 weeks of closing parties running until 22nd December, Between The Bridges has undergone a Christmas makeover as Electric Winter returns for its fifth year with all areas heated, and enough Christmas decs to warm even the coldest heart!
The last two weeks of closing parties will see the likes of Swiftogeddon, Ogrepalooza, Drag Brunch, Guilty Pleasure, Hot To Ho Ho Ho and loads more taking place with a huge closing party on Dec 22nd with DJs and more drinks deals than you can shake a candy cane at!
There will be Live DJs from Thursday to Sunday each week in The Dock including the ever popular Guilty Pleasures Christmas Special clubnight, throwback Hip Hop / RNB night Flexin’ turns into Flexin’ Around The Xmas Tree! especially for Christmas with some special themed events, and the return of our girly pop party Hot To Ho, Ho, Ho! every Saturday – all of which are totally free!
Between The Bridges free weekly events will continue with:
Flexin’ Around The Christmas Tree! – Thursdays
Keen for an after work session? We’ve got throwback Hip Hop and RnB classics with a bit of garage thrown in for good measure – guaranteed to get you on the Dock dance floor. Winter will see some special themed nights happening such as Beyonce Vs Rihanna, Sean Paul Vs Pit Bull, Nicki Minaj Vs Cardi B and loads more! Less Mary’s Child – more Destiny’s Child!
Feliz Navi-Disco – Fridays.
Join the resident Between The Bridges DJs and expect to hear the best cutting edge house and neo-disco tunes, with plenty of classics thrown in to keep you dancing. The one and only
Guilty Pleasures Christmas Specials – Saturdays.

All I Want For Christmas Is Number 1’s – Thursdays
Get ready for a sleigh-full of Christmas chart-toppers as our DJ spins every festive number one you’ve ever loved (and a few guilty pleasures you secretly know all the words to). From Mariah to Macca, it’s wall-to-wall Christmas bangers, big singalongs, and pure December joy all night long.
Singalonga – Fridays & Saturdays
Join us for Singalonga, where your favourite Christmas tunes and classic hits collide for the most feel-good night of the week. Whether it’s Last Christmas, Wonderwall or Sweet Caroline, our performer will lead the way. All you need to bring is your best (or worst) singing voice.
