Here’s the line-up for the awesome Skate at Somerset House with Fortnum and Mason Club Nights

As the days get shorter, Somerset House will be providing their take on the festive period with club nights (and mornings) on ice.

Taking the after-dark slot on selected dates, Somerset House’s ice rink will play host to renowned DJs, labels and established club nights, bringing a mixture of house, disco and party anthems to the stunning venue.

It’s an excellent way to extend the seasonal fun, bringing further vibrancy to the winter staple.

Kicking off on 18 November 2016, with Rough Trade, followed by Swingers on 23 November, who will be decamping from their usual central London location with Greg Sawyer, Jake Williams and Jason King spinning party classics.

From there, Somerset House will welcome the likes of online radio station Balamii, cutting edge electronic label Aus Music, and an immersive morning dance party from Morning Gloryville.

The eighteen club events will culminate on 13 January with Brad Baloo, one half of The Nextmen, promising straight-up people pleasers.

So if you fancy getting your groove on at Somerset House, on skates – which of course you do – head over to Somerset House’s website or check out some of our highlights:
