About this tour
Dance on the Ouse aboard York's floating nightclub for 2.5 hours. Board to a glass of fizz, claim your reserved table, then surrender to a live DJ spinning current hits whilst the city drifts past. Two-course buffet fuels the dancing; the bar stays open throughout. Groups welcome—hen parties, birthdays, friends out for the night. Not for stag do culture or those intent on getting hammered.

What to expect
You'll board, receive a welcome drink, and settle at your table whilst the boat casts off. The DJ kicks in almost immediately—expect a mix of familiar party tracks and current chart hits. The buffet arrives in stages; grab plates between dances or eat early if you prefer. The bar runs constantly. The boat navigates slowly downriver, so you'll see historic bridges, Georgian buildings, and riverside gardens frame the party. Two and a half hours sounds short; it feels longer once the music starts.
Good to know
River conditions occasionally force the boat to stay put at a landing instead of cruising; you still party, just stationary. Refunds only if completely cancelled. The dress code is unspoken but understood—smart-casual at minimum. Arrive 10–15 minutes early. Public transport is walkable to the departure point.
