The best corporate Christmas party venues in London

Few people can claim to have had their work Christmas party at one of North London's most iconic grounds (yes we hedging our bets here, call it cowardice, we call it self-preservation). The Tottenham ground has an astounding number of great spaces to book up for a true Xmas get-together.

From pitch-side dinners and in-tunnel drinks to renting the whole stadium, every type of corporate Christmas party can be accommodated. The amazing staff are on hand to ensure everything kicks off without a scratch, kick or handball.

With well-stocked bars and circulating food keeping everyone happy, all you have to do is watch out for irate rival fans trying to pretend they're not having a good time.

Gold chandeliers. Bronze-ish candelabras. Exposed brick walls. Lived-in furniture. Fireplaces to keep you toasty. Antiques in each room, the odd statue to keep the conversation going. And a piano, because of course, there would be a piano.

These are just a few of the things you notice when you first visit Brunswick House, the Grade II-listed Georgian mansion.

Originally built for the Duke of Brunswick, Charles William Ferdinand, this mansion is now home to a cocktail bar, restaurant, cellar – and corporate Christmas parties aplenty.

For a Christmas party to remember, dine, drink and dance in any of their private rooms (which seat up to 110 guests and 250 standing) or maybe step outside onto their leafy terrace area for a bit of fresh air.

Maybe it’s the lights on each and every street. The faint sound of carols and Christmas Top 10s. Or maybe it’s the smell of sugar and spices and the promise of something delicious. The hustle, bustle and rustle of shopping bags and their owners. Whatever it is, Christmas never really loses that magical feeling.

Take the lift to the top of the Gherkin to find Searcys at The Gherkin, the restaurant and bar serving up British dishes and drinks aplenty.

With breathtaking views on their side (seriously, wait till sunrise) and specialised Christmas packages, a corporate Christmas party has never been so exciting.

Hire out the entire bar or restaurant, or for something a bit more intimate, host a Christmas party with up to 50 guests in one of their private dining rooms. How’s that for a magical start to the festive period?

Situated on 37 Charles Street, right in the centre of Mayfair is the historic venue, Dartmouth House.

With its lofty ballrooms, grand halls, and rooms that feel like they’re lifted out of a Bridgerton set, this looks like the right place for your corporate Christmas party.

Whether it’s a sophisticated soirée or something a little more uptempo, there’s quite literally, room for it all. Dine and dance the night away – do it banquet-style or break off into smaller groups for something more intimate.

For Christmas menus, expect a three-course meal that looks like this: turkey with cranberry stuffing, Hasselback potatoes and roasted carrots, figgy pudding and brandy custard, alongside veggie and vegan options.

A Christmas party in a mansion? Sounds like a plan.

Party like a VIP – well, for one day, you really are. The Members Lounge at Twickenham Stadium welcomes guests for dinners, conferences, and you guessed it, corporate Christmas parties.

Although the interior does border on functional, that is easily customisable and the biggest attraction, the pitch, clearly steals the show.

Party your way with the suite’s own bar and DJ. With seating for up to 130 people, you could be dining to the sounds of ‘All I Want for Christmas is You’ in no time.

RSVP to one of the most exclusive Christmas parties of the year.

Find them on Level 3 of the West Stand.

Nothing beats a really good Christmas dinner. It’s every bit as heart-warming and filling as you hope it would be. From the carved turkey and homemade roast potatoes to the generous helpings of gravy. Also, let’s not forget the best bit – the humble (we would argue, underrated) roast veg. What’s your favourite festive veg? Carrots? Leeks? Parsnips? How about cucumbers?

Named after its green bar, Cucumber is a name, and place, that we think we’ll be seeing more of.

With branded pillars, modern furniture, overhead lighting and a pretty inoffensive colour scheme, where the Sea Containers Events space really comes into its own is with the floor-to-ceiling windows.

Look over the city as you celebrate your team’s wins at this year’s Christmas party, and with room for 100 seated guests and 200 standing, just remember to make sure you have enough champagne.
