Christmas parties in London are available in various formats, such as shared Christmas parties, semi-private and exclusive Christmas parties, as detailed below.
Exclusive Christmas Parties
An exclusive Christmas party allows groups to hire a Christmas party package or venue exclusively and enjoy the theming and decoration at the venue, as well as catering packages that will be available throughout the entire Christmas run. With an exclusive Christmas party companies will have the venue or sometimes an area or room within the Christmas venue to themselves, which usually gives event planner much more flexibility when it comes to making changes to the packages and tailoring the events to their preferences.

Alternatively exclusive Christmas parties are a perfect option for large groups, although we regularly plan exclusive Christmas events for groups of around fifty guests up to thousands of guests, depending on the budget and brief.
Shared Christmas Parties
For smaller groups (usually from ten guests upwards) that wish to join a bigger Christmas event and enjoy an amazing party atmosphere, shared Christmas parties are a fantastic option and allow companies or groups of friends to join a big event, enjoy a wonderful Christmas party package and share the costs of the venue hire, catering, production and entertainment in with other companies. This type of Christmas party format is most popular for groups of around 10 guests up to 100 guests, although we often have groups of up to 300 guests joining our biggest parties as the atmosphere can’t be beaten!
In many cases, a shared Christmas party will allow smaller groups to join a much more exciting and memorable event than they could otherwise afford when going for a private option. To see the most popular shared Christmas parties in London this year you can follow this link.
Semi-Private Christmas Parties
Another less common option for a Christmas party is a semi private Christmas event, which is similar to a shared Christmas party, although with the option for groups of certain sizes to have a private dining experience as part of the event and then join the other companies for a party and entertainment afterwards. This can be the perfect option for groups that want an element of privacy and to enjoy the company of their friends and colleagues in an intimate way, whilst still enjoying a fantastic party atmosphere and the opportunity to meet new people in a fun and suitable environment. If you are interested in finding out about semi private Christmas party options in London then get in touch with our team of event planners, who will be able to recommend the most suitable events for your group size and preferred location.
