Choosing the right venue for your festive event in London can seem difficult, as you want to find the perfect spot and impress all of your guests, obviously. Before you make a decision and start contacting venue managers, ask yourself the following questions:

  • What kind of venue am I looking for? Is it going to be a fancy restaurant for a Christmas dinner, a laid-back cafe for a holiday lunch or a large blank canvas space to party in until dawn? Make sure the space fits your purposes!
  • How many people am I inviting? If you’re organising a company Christmas party for hundreds of guests, you want to make sure there’s enough space. If, on the other hand, it’s going to be an intimate meeting with friends and family, don’t overpay for a large event venue if it's not necessary!
  • What activities do I want to include? Check the facilities available at each festive venue - you’ll want a space with a dance floor and good speakers if you’re organising a holiday rave, but an office event with a presentation summing up the year will probably require a projector or TV display.

If you are organising a Christmas party in the borough of Islington, definitely search along Upper Street and Holloway Road! These main streets of the area boast plenty of festive venues popular in the holiday season, including bars, private dining rooms, and some very unique spaces. The historic area of Angel is also filled with some amazing pubs and restaurants that are perfect for a seasonal celebration. If you want to take your holiday event a bit further away from Central London’s hustle and bustle, you should definitely check out the Holloway and Archway districts. They boast some top tier Christmas party venues that should satisfy even the most demanding of tastes!

Booked Weatherproof Rooftop Bar at Bubba Oasis

Lily was so efficient and on the ball with helping us plan the event I really can't thank her enough for all of the support. The actual night turned out brilliantly - all of the staff were so friendly, the food was delicious with plenty of options to go around and the rooftop venue was awesome. All of the added extras like the ice cream cart and photo booth really made this party a night to remember.

Booked Function Room at The Joker
3.6

The venue was very nice and our table was beautifully set. The bar tender and waiters were incredibly helpful and great to us. The food was ok. Due to a misunderstanding, the venue gifted us 6 bottles of Prosecco worth approximately £150. I would give service 5 starts, had it not been for the venue manager. I would have given the venue facilities 5 starts Gad it not been because we couldn’t turn the music up do to neighborhood noise restrictions.

Staff were super friendly, helpful and efficient, going above and beyond to make sure we had a great party. Food was good value and good quality, particularly given that it was catering for a large group and the room was ideal - private and with lots of natural light. Would definitely use again.
