It’s never too early to start thinking about the perfect spot for your work Christmas party!
Whether you’re looking for something stylish, cosy, or a little out of the ordinary, London’s got plenty of festive venues to choose from.
We’ve rounded up 13 of the best Christmas party venues in London that are guaranteed to impress your team and make this year’s celebration one to remember.
How to pick the best Christmas party venue in London for your team
Picking the best Christmas party venue in London for your team is all about finding a spot that matches your vibe, budget, and goals for the event.
Start by thinking about the size of your team – you don’t want a space that’s too cramped or too big, so check the venue’s capacity.
Then, budget is an all-important consideration — London Xmas party costs, on average, around £90 per person, but you might be able to get a deal for a little less.
Or, if your team has smashed their targets this year, why not splurge on a more decadent celebration?
Next, consider the atmosphere.
Is your team all about sleek cocktail bars, cosy pubs, or quirky spots with a bit of personality?
Location is key, too – make sure it’s easy for everyone to get to (and home from, especially after a mulled wine or two!).
Also, look for venues that offer flexible catering options – some teams love a sit-down meal, while others are happy with finger food and dancing.
And don’t forget the extras!
Whether it’s a photo booth, DJ, or themed decor, those little touches can take the party to the next level.
Finally, book early – the best spots in London fill up fast, especially around Christmas!
