Quirky and alternative Christmas party venues

Thursday 14 September 2017

 Flight Club  The Vault at Old Billingsgate

Like us, you 're probably finding it hard to ignore the many e-shot reminders that the festive season is only a few months away. Contact us if this year, you're wanting to provide your guests with something a bit different, to make it even easier we've put together a list of some of our favourite alternative Christmas party venues to inspire a festive celebration with a twist...

WHY ARE PEOPLE CHOOSING ALTERNATIVE CHRISTMAS VENUES? 

Our recently conducted London Christmas Party Survey 2017 indicates a growing trend towards cooler bars, clubs and venues, rather than the more traditional choices of old. This may be, in part, due to the gradual change in dining styles towards bowl and street food and away from more formal seated dining.

The growth in popularity of themed venues including Bounce and Flight Club (darts place!) as year staff entertainment venues has brought these funky spaces to the top of company’s shortlists when selecting their London Christmas Party venue.

These venues normally offer either a private area for drinks and dining, ideal for smaller groups wanting to share the bigger party vibe, or can be hired exclusively for parties of around 150 or more guests.

Whilst these venues are often less expensive than the more traditional London Christmas party options, you need to keep a close eye on drinks prices and may need to limit the bar bill via tokens or wristbands to keep within your set budget.


HERE IS OUR PICK OF THE COOLEST LONDON CHRISTMAS PARTY VENUES ON THE MARKET:

1. Six Storeys 
If you're a smaller team looking for an exclusive space to dine, Six Storeys on Soho has a bundle of unique rooms for groups as small as 15 guests or even up to 80 for a standing reception. Each floor in this distinctive townhouse has views over Soho square and boasts an eclectic mix of styles, which could make it tricky for you to decide which of the six floors you take.

2. Billingsgate Vaults 
With a maximum capacity of 100 guests, this quirky underground den is perfect for larger groups or for those who are up for the atmosphere a shared Christmas party brings. The Vaults are set amongst exposed brickwork, low ceilings and arches, making it easy to create an intimate atmosphere and is just a stones throw away from Monument tube station (what more could you want?).

3. Hawker House
If your team are crazy about their food, then this is the ultimate Christmas party venue for you! With eight international street food traders and a craft beer cans bar, your guests will be spoilt for choice on what to tuck into next (it is Christmas after all)!  Hawker House can hold a maximum of 400 guests for large dinners and is the perfect space to eat, drink and dance the night away to celebrate Christmas.  

4. Flight Club 
Flight Club is perfect for those more relaxed, laid-back Christmas parties where its all about an element of fun. Why not get your team involved in Darts (trust us, we've tried it and it's fantastic!) for the 21st century and with numerous throw lines, everyone can play and anyone can win. With semi-private spaces for 24-200 guests and all set up with flight screen scoring system and dart board, food and drink, it is perfect for groups of any size.   

5. Ice Bar
Why not give your guests a real winter wonderland experience, for the most unique Christmas party around. This venue gives you the opportunity to add an Ice Bar experience to your Christmas package, before retreating to the  Wolf Bar, Moose Bar or Reindeer room. With a private bar and easy access to the terrace, the venue can accommodate a minimum of 12 guests, up to 100.
