ncllastdance 2026

The Last Dance, an annual tradition celebrating the end of exams for graduating students is now coming to Newcastle!

Rather than having small, expensive 3-course meals or cheap finger-food that runs out within minutes, we’ve focused on creating a standout experience and making tickets affordable so every one of you graduating this year can attend. As a result, we have secured one of the best venues in the city centre and have exciting entertainment planned for you! So step into the allure of the last dance and follow the sound of jazz, as we celebrate the end of exams and the completion of your undergraduate journey with one last, unforgettable night.
