About This Show
Literally translated as ‘mirror tent’, Spiegeltents were originally built in Belgium in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Designed as travelling ballrooms, the mirrors allowed discrete eye contact to be made across a crowded dance floor. Marlene Dietrich famously sung ?Falling in Love Again’ in a Spiegeltent in Paris in the 1930’s and their innate beauty and romance have continued to attract artists who would normally perform in much larger venues. Christmas at the Spiegeltent continues this fine tradition and is now considered an institution in Bristol’s festive calendar with legendary Christmas parties, live music, DJs, performance, theatre, masked balls, fine food and family events.
