party description

The Black Knight and Sir Lancelot welcome you to your Christmas party 2012 at King Arthur's castle, Camelot.   

Make your way through the medieval archway, guarded by suits of armour and enter a grandly themed banquet hall fit for a King. Join in the festivities amidst St. Georges Dragon, mystical Wizards and medieval flags. 

During dinner the Knights that welcomed you seem to have had a falling out over a spilt goblet, they settle their differences in the way only bold Knights can, with a sword fight to the death. 

After dinner has been served, the DJ kicks off the disco, keeping the party mood running high till the early morning hours. 

Lots of extra features can be added to this event!

  • Upgrade your entrance to a beautiful drawbridge
  • Hire a King and Queen to oversee the festivities
  • Stocks, pillorys and other torture equipment can be hired for effect

venue location

Venue: Whitworth Hall, Manchester

venue description

The neo-Gothic Whitworth Hall is a real Manchester treasure. 

There are few venues as elegant and enchanting. The Whitworth hall lends itself beautifully to the more sophisticated function.  The vast church organ is an imposing and impressive feature at end one of the room with stained glass windows adoring the other.  Fine architecture spans floor to ceiling, which adds to the grand sophisticated atmosphere of Whitworth Hall.

The reception is held in the equally impressive library next door before the call to dinner.
