Alternative Christmas Party Venues Hire Guide
Annual office Christmas parties are held not only to celebrate the holidays and dance the night away, but also to bring colleagues closer together. You may feel some pressure over organising the event, especially when it comes to making it unforgettable for your guests. Thankfully, we have some tips up our sleeve on how to make this year’s Christmas party stand apart:
- Quirky theme – Try to stay away from cliché Christmas party themes such as ‘Winter Wonderland’ and brainstorm more unique alternatives. What about the Winter Olympics, A Christmas Masquerade or Christmas Movies?
- Spice up the drinks – Tired of eggnog and Christmas punch? Make a deal with the bartender and reinvent a well-known drink into a new and improved version. Feel free to set your imagination loose!

Old Trafford and Ardwick are less central, areas where you can look for a quirky venue. There you can find spacious halls, which you can decorate to your liking, making them as unique as you want, as well as historical venues that can help give your Christmas party a hip vintage feel.

It depends on the venue. Before you go ahead and buy the necessary materials, contact your venue manager to get the go ahead. More expensive alternative venues would likely want to show off their special decor.
