Family Christmas Ceilidh Returns to The Glasshouse

A Very Merry Family Christmas Ceilidh comes to The Glasshouse in Gateshead on 19 December 2026, with the venue advertising a 2pm start.

The afternoon version is built specifically around families, turning the ceilidh format into an accessible festive event before the venue’s adults-only evening session.

The date adds another distinctive show to Gateshead’s programme and gives North East audiences an option that is about the live experience as much as the repertoire itself. The Glasshouse is easy to reach from Newcastle across the Tyne, while its own programme continues to mix major touring names with seasonal and specialist events.

For anyone deciding whether to make a night of it, the important detail is that this isn’t simply another generic date in a long tour listing. The venue has programmed it as a specific Gateshead event, and the setting should play a significant part in how the show feels on the day.

The event is for families with children; adults cannot attend without children. As ever, check the venue page before travelling for the latest information on timings, access and ticket availability.

SoundBite is continuing to connect these previews directly to its Event listings. That means the event card, venue programme and recently-added listings can take readers into the fuller preview rather than leaving the useful context buried away from the gig data.
