Planning the office Christmas party can be harder than it sounds.
Every year, it’s the same shortlist: a restaurant, a private dining room, a cocktail bar… and then someone suggests doing the exact same thing as last year.
So, this Christmas, why not do something a little different?
Bring your Christmas party to a brewery.
At SMALL BEER Brewery & Taproom in South Bermondsey, just one stop from London Bridge, we have a unique event space ready to be transformed into your Christmas party. Whether you’re planning a corporate Christmas party, team celebration, end-of-year gathering or a big festive get-together with friends, our brewery is a blank canvas for an event that’s completely your own.
You bring the people. We’ll bring the party.
A Christmas party venue with plenty of room to make it your own
The best thing about throwing a Christmas party at the brewery? There’s no set formula.
Our event space can be dressed up, decorated and transformed to suit whatever kind of Christmas party you have in mind.
Want a classic festive celebration with twinkling lights, Christmas trees and mulled wine? Done.
Want something a little less traditional, with live music, street food, cocktails and a dancefloor? Absolutely.
Or perhaps you want to go all out with a theme, entertainment and games that your guests won’t see coming.
The world is your oyster.
With space for up to 180 guests standing or 140 seated, the brewery works for everything from smaller team Christmas parties to large-scale company celebrations.
And because it’s your private hire, you can make the space feel completely yours.
Christmas entertainment: from ceilidh to karaoke
A great Christmas party needs great entertainment.
We can help you arrange everything from live music and DJs to karaoke and a full Scottish ceilidh.
Get your Christmas party dancing with a ceilidh
There’s something about a Christmas ceilidh that gets everyone involved. Even the people who swore they weren’t going to dance.
We work with Fiddle Paradiddle, who can bring a lively live ceilidh experience to the brewery, complete with musicians and a caller to guide your guests through the dances.
It’s energetic, sociable and a brilliant way to get a whole team on the dancefloor.
Turn the brewery into karaoke night
Prefer to let your colleagues do the performing?
We can set up karaoke at the brewery, giving your guests the chance to take over the mic once the Christmas drinks are flowing.
From guilty pleasures to questionable power ballads, karaoke is entirely optional (but strongly encouraged.)
Live music and DJs
If karaoke isn’t quite your thing, we can help you bring in a DJ or live musicians instead.
We have a range of live entertainment options available across different styles, from intimate acoustic sets to full-on party entertainment.
One option we love is High On Heels, an award-winning all-female DJ Live collective combining DJs, live vocals and musicians. Their entertainment can be tailored to your event, from DJ + sax or vocalist through to a full live band setup.
And if you already have an entertainment idea in mind, just let us know.
Or bring your own entertainment
Because our brewery is a flexible event space, you’re not restricted to a pre-set entertainment package.
Want a photo booth?
A bucking bronco?
A punch bag machine?
Games and challenges?
A particular DJ or band?
Something completely different?
If you can fit it in the brewery, we’ll do our best to make it happen.
Our Events Team can work with you to build an event around your ideas, rather than asking you to squeeze your Christmas party into someone else’s template.
Christmas food, sorted
Of course, no Christmas party is complete without food.
We work with a range of brilliant independent caterers and food trucks, meaning you can choose the food that suits your event and your guests.
Think:
Christmas sharing platters
Festive street food
Pizza from Yard Sale Pizza
Vietnamese food
Tartiflette
Canapés and bowl food
Bespoke Christmas menus
Whether you want something casual that guests can grab between dancing or a more substantial sit-down Christmas meal, we can help you find the right catering option.
Christmas cocktails, mulled wine and SMALL BEER
And then there are the drinks.
Our fully stocked bar can serve SMALL BEER alongside wine, spirits, mixers and cocktails, with options to build a drinks package around your event.
For something properly festive, we can also serve mulled wine and winter cocktails to get everyone into the Christmas spirit.
And, naturally, there’ll be plenty of SMALL BEER on tap.
Our beers sit between 2-2.8% ABV, giving your guests the option to enjoy a beer while keeping things a little lighter throughout the night.
A Christmas party venue near London Bridge
Location matters, especially when you’re trying to get a whole team home at the end of the night.
SMALL BEER Brewery & Taproom is in South Bermondsey, just one stop from London Bridge, making it an easy-to-reach Christmas party venue in London.
Once you arrive, though, it feels a world away from the usual city-centre Christmas party circuit.
You’ll be celebrating inside a working brewery, surrounded by brewing tanks, beer and the SMALL BEER team; with the freedom to turn the space into whatever kind of party you want.
Why have an ordinary Christmas party?
You spend enough of the year sitting in meeting rooms. Your Christmas party should feel like an actual celebration.
No two parties have to look the same.
So, if you’re looking for a unique Christmas party venue in London, a brewery Christmas party could be exactly what you’re after.
