FAQs about Christmas Party Venues London

As a guide for December: small venues for up to 50 guests usually cost £2,000 to £7,500, mid-size venues for 50 to 150 guests £4,500 to £22,500, and large venues for 150 guests or more from £13,500 upwards. Central London (the West End, the City and Canary Wharf) sits at the top of those ranges; outer London and alternative venues at the bottom. Most venues price December as a minimum spend on food and drink.

For Thursday and Friday nights between late November and 23 December, book three to six months ahead, and by early October at the latest. Early December and Monday to Wednesday dates stay available later. If your date has gone, ask about a January party: venues are quieter and minimum spends drop.

London has historic venues and livery halls, hotels with Christmas packages, rooftop venues with heated and covered areas, warehouse and blank-canvas spaces, pubs and bars with private rooms, museums and galleries, riverside venues, and clubs with late licences. Many offer set festive menus, decorations and entertainment.

Yes. Many London venues run a seated dinner followed by a DJ or band, either by turning the room around after dinner or by using a second space. Hotels with ballrooms, event venues and larger restaurants do this regularly. Check the finish time and whether a late licence applies to private hire on your date.

Ask what the Christmas package includes (menu, drinks, decorations, entertainment), the minimum spend and what counts towards it, service charge, payment and cancellation terms, the finish time and any noise restrictions, whether you can bring your own suppliers, and how guests will get home. Ask to see photos of the room set up for a previous Christmas party.

How to choose a Christmas party venue in London

Fix the headcount, date and budget first

Most December pricing is a minimum spend, so the three numbers that decide your shortlist are how many people will come, which night, and how much you can spend per head. Expect 70 to 85 percent of invitees to attend a work Christmas party. A Tuesday or Wednesday usually unlocks venues that are out of reach on a Friday.

Choose the style of party

A formal dinner suits livery halls, palaces and hotel ballrooms. A drinks-and-dancing party suits clubs, cocktail bars and warehouse spaces. A party with something to do suits games venues and activity bars. Decide the style and the list of suitable venues shrinks quickly.
