Can anyone tell me please why 23a DANCE PARTY (4) is rare. Have looked rare up in the on-line dictionaries and can find no relation to dance or party? Was this a bad clue or what?

Not Rave, that was what I thought of straight away. I am doing this on-line and all the other answers are right.
What are the other clues? This surely must be rave.

Nope, I have submitted it now and it was definitely 'Rare' that's the trouble doing the crossword on-line I will not see if they print a apology tomorrow. So infuriating as it took me ages to work out what went in there and lost my time bonus.
I think it might be RARA as in rara skirt.
The Telegraph Puzzles Editor has now corrected the clue online (it's too late for the newspaper!) to "23a Uncommon (4)". Expect an apology tomorrow!

@anacryp - when you do the puzzles online you know if you have the correct answer and RARE was the answer expected.
The word RORT comes up as a wild party, as opposed to a 'Dance Party'.
