party description

Enter into the spirit of a Christmas past and experience the nostalgia of eclectic Victorian England at ‘A Christmas Carol’ themed Christmas party 2012.  Here, you will be welcomed by the sound of carol singers and the sweet smell of roasting chestnuts.  While your guests sip from a warm glass of delicious mulled wine, they can soak up the party atmosphere amidst fresh falling snow.

As you engage in the merriment and festivities, mischievous pickpockets, drunks and chimney sweeps mingle in with the crowds alongside other characters of the Dickensian era.  A Victorian news boy calls the latest bulletin – newspapers are replaced by carol sheets or perhaps a message from your company to signify the year’s end. 

Following a delicious three course traditional Christmas mean the side stalls will open with ‘hook a duck’, ‘tin can alley’  and ‘the coconut shy’ to amuse and entertain your guests – along with the chance to win novelty prizes! 

Extras to this enchanting themed party include:

  • Traditional village band for reception (with or without actors)

  • Traditional choir

  • Fairground rides for bigger parties

  • Candyfloss and popcorn stall

  • Fortune tellers and card readers
