It’s that time of year again where you have to organise your Christmas work do! Whether you are planning for a small or large company, it is essential that your festive party is xmas-ceptional!
Here are our top tips to help you plan yours:
1. Try a different theme
Instead of going for a traditional evening meal, you could book a Christmas party with a theme. This year we are hosting the Alpine Apres Ski Party, which includes Austrian food kiosks, DJ and a traditional Oompah Band. The theme will transport guests into the magical surroundings of a ski chalet, where they can enjoy an evening of Apres Ski entertainment.
2. Find a new venue
Hosting a Christmas party every year in the same location is repetitive and makes your employees think that you haven’t put enough effort into it. Add a surprise element by finding an exciting new, venue to celebrate with your colleagues.
Our venue at Newbury Racecourse, for example, is less than 1 hour train journey away from London* and has exceptional views of the countryside, something the big cities cannot offer.

3. Choose a venue with a view
Nothing can beat a venue with a natural backdrop. How about the view across the 300 acres of the Berkshire countryside at our venue at Newbury Racecourse?
Now that’s a view! All of the joiner Christmas parties at Newbury Racecourse are hosted at The Dubai Duty Free Grandstand, which has some of the best views in the county.
4. Choose a good catering team
Although you would like to think that your fellow employees want to be at your work do for company morale, you can be certain that a good number of them are only looking forward to the eating and drinking!
With our expert knowledge of food and drink our award-winning catering teams will provide you with a dining experience you won’t forget!
