NARBERTH, Pembrokeshire — A pioneering event that is changing how the UK talks about grief is coming to The Queen’s Hall.

Grief Disco is not a typical night out. It is a carefully held space where people navigating loss can move, connect and feel less alone — through music, community and shared understanding.

Designed for anyone carrying grief – whether recent or long-held – the event offers an alternative to traditional support spaces. Guests can dance to uplifting house and disco music, sit quietly and absorb the atmosphere, connect with others who understand, or take part in simple creative rituals to honour the person they are remembering.

Guests receive a “permission slip for joy” on arrival, acknowledging that grief can carry guilt around feeling good again and gently inviting space for lightness alongside loss.

Why It Matters

Grief is universal, yet many people feel isolated in it. Traditional services don’t always feel accessible or sufficient, and grief often lives in the body as much as in the mind.

Grief Disco draws on growing evidence around the power of music, rhythm and shared experience to support emotional processing and nervous system regulation. By combining intentional facilitation with dance music and community, the event offers a complementary model of grief support that reduces isolation and fosters connection.

A Growing National Movement

Created by Georgina Jones and Leah Sian Davies, Grief Disco has grown from a grassroots idea into a nationally recognised movement.

It has:

  • Been delivered within hospice settings
  • Partnered with health boards and community wellbeing teams
  • Trained facilitators across the UK
  • Featured at Hospice UK Conference 2026 — where it was described as one of the most talked-about sessions after an audience unexpectedly found themselves dancing together during the keynote

The Queen’s Hall event brings this nationally recognised experience to Pembrokeshire.

What People Say

One previous attendee shared:

“I didn’t realise how much I needed that night. I laughed, I cried, I danced — and for the first time in a long time, I didn’t feel alone in my grief.”

Georgina Jones said:

“Grief can be incredibly lonely. We created Grief Disco to offer a space where people don’t have to explain themselves or hold it all together. Music allows us to move what words sometimes can’t. This is about connection — not escape. About remembering — not forgetting.”

Who It’s For

Grief Disco is open to anyone experiencing loss — partners, parents, siblings, friends, colleagues — anyone carrying love for someone no longer physically here.

There is no expectation to dance, speak or share.

Attendees are invited to participate in whatever way feels supportive.
