The 4 best unique Christmas party venues in Bristol

Christmas parties can be hit or miss. Spend too much time planning and you run the risk of disappointing all guests, not enough time though, and you’re fighting over the last box of Celebrations at a Tesco Express.


We think this year can be different. Don’t dread the Christmas do. Put away the cheap alcohol, lukewarm pies, and small paper hats, and try something new.


From hidden vaults to top decks, Bristol has more options than Santa’s list (guess which one). If you’d fancy a change this Christmas, the city has tons of unique Christmas party venues to keep your spirits up.

2. A unique Christmas party venue that’s hidden in plain sight – The Vault, Milk Thistle, Bristol

Bristol

Mahogany furniture, oxblood and emerald green leather seats, a rogue stag head, and ornate stain glass windows are what you’ll find on the first and ground floor of Bristol bar, Milk Thistle. Take a detour downstairs and you’ll stumble upon one of the city’s worst-kept secrets.


Tucked away below street level is The Vault. With its old furniture, unfinished floors, liqueur cabinets, and peeling paint it feels like a world away from the traditional interior of the main floor.


It’s secluded, intimate, and feels like your very own secret hideout. With a 16-person capacity, meat and cheese boards, a fully-stocked bar, and some of the best whiskey in Bristol, this hidden treasure is available for any upcoming small Christmas parties.

3. Get aboard this unique Christmas party venue – Thekla, Bristol

Bristol

All aboard the Thekla! The former cargo ship, now docked in Bristol’s Floating Harbour, has been home to live music performances and club nights since the 90s.


With its simple oak interiors, overhead lighting, and black booths, it’s pretty unassuming (that is, if you ignore the fact that you’re on a boat) but it’s exactly what you need for a party on your own terms.


Hire the top deck for a Christmas do on the waterfront. Head to the bar for a pint or cocktail then slide into a booth or find your way to the dance floor.


The top deck also has a nice view of the harbour. Now, how’s that for a Christmas party?

4. Fly high at this unique Christmas party venue – Circomedia, St. Paul’s Church

Bristol

Great heavens! It’s not every day you see circus performers at church (yes, you read that correctly). After collaborating with St. Paul’s Church for a renovation, Bristol-based contemporary circus, and theatre, Circomedia, has been host to events over the past few years.


As you’d expect, you’ll find high ceilings, stained glass windows, and grand pillars typical of any church (but still, no less impressive). Alongside this heavenly backdrop, circus performers entertain throughout the night.


It’s Christmas time at “Cirque Du Église”. Drink, dine and marvel at the magic performances with up to 150 other guests.
