What is a Christmas theme?

Christmas is the biggest night of the year for many teams. Festive acts make it feel like an occasion: LED and gold nutcrackers at the door, festive living statues, champagne walkers and stilt walkers.

Combine Christmas with another theme (Christmas in Paris, a Gatsby Christmas or a Winter Wonderland) for something different from last year.

Tips from our team

  1. 1

    Mix the themes

    Christmas in Paris and a Gatsby Christmas are two of the most popular combinations.

  2. 2

    Think about the door

    Nutcrackers at the entrance are the photo every guest takes.

    Hold dates now

    Late November and December weekends are booked first. Midweek dates have more choice.

Frequently asked questions

Do venues around Southend-on-Sea have sound limits for dhol or music?

Many hotels and country houses set a sound limit or an end time, and some ask for unplugged dhol indoors. Tell us your venue when you enquire and we will check its rules before we confirm anything.

Which postcodes around Southend-on-Sea do you cover?

All of SS0, SS1, SS2, SS3, SS4, SS5, SS6, SS8 and SS9, including Leigh-on-Sea, Canvey Island, Rayleigh, Rochford, Shoeburyness and Great Wakering, plus the rest of Essex and nearby Burnham-on-Crouch, Minster, Basildon and Maldon.

How far ahead should we book Christmas party entertainment?

Ideally by the summer. Early December weekends are the first to go, and midweek dates give you more choice of acts.

Can you work with our venue's Christmas package?

Yes. Most venues welcome entertainment. We agree access, timings and space with the venue before the day.

Still have questions?

Tell us about your event and we'll come back with options.
