Best Things to Do in Wales Over the Festive Season

The festive season is here, and you’re ready to do something special! Except… You haven’t figured out just what yet. If the burden of planning falls on you this year, either because you’re making plans solo or because your friends just decided to make your life difficult, this is the guide for you. Fun and unique ways to spend your time this season, no matter how you roll.

If you like nights out, you might want to consider attending the Intergalactic Disco Festival at Tramshed Cardiff. This out-of-this-world experience is hosted by Motel Nights and will be starting at 20:00 on the 31st.

Is your idea of a good time staying in the comfort of your home? That doesn’t mean you can’t do anything fun or exciting for the holidays!

Staying home with good food, good company, and a good movie or game can be a wonderful time. And if you’re feeling especially bold, check out this list of casinos not on Gamstop. “Casinos not on Gamstop offer more freedom, like bigger game selections, higher betting limits, and a variety of payment options,” writes casino expert and content writer Liliana Costache in the guide.

We recommend a stay-at-home casino night, complete with sparkling champagne, buttery popcorn, and your very best pyjamas.

If you just entered a relationship and are coasting in the honeymoon phase (or simply never left it), your idea of a great celebration includes some kind of romantic outing with your boo.

There are many ways of enjoying time together, but with all the running around, we recommend you find a way of slowing down. We especially recommend attending a restaurant where you eat in the dark. You’ll be surprised at how well you both listen when you can’t see.

If you can’t get a booking, recreate the experience at home! You can cook for each other, set the table, draw the curtains, and turn off all the lights. Or just get a pair of blindfolds. It’s certain to be an experience you won’t forget.

Maybe what you want to do for the holidays is think, reflect, and find beauty in the time that’s passed and the time that’s about to come. You want to celebrate with others, but without getting a hangover the next day. You don’t want to go out and party, but you don’t want to just sit at home either.

We recommend attending the New Years Eve at The Library event hosted by Round The Clock & Co. You’ll get to enjoy live music, good conversation, canapés, and champagnes in an elegant atmosphere. The event is starting at 9:30 on the 31st at The Library Bristol, a special venue that transforms from a vintage tea parlour in the afternoon to an exclusive and secretive nightclub lounge at night.

If you want to start the new year off right, you might not want to party the night before. The same goes if you have young children. Then you should look into the ‘Noon’ Year’s Eve Family Disco hosted by Glitter Tots in Tramshed Cardiff. The party starts at 10:30 in the morning on the 31st, and there’s a countdown to midday.
