Time to Ditch the Sad Party Hats – Create Your Dream Christmas Celebration!
The traditional office party is out, and creating your own styled event is in!

No need to have the sad party hats, damp streamers & shuffling around to Slade on the dance floor. You deserve so much more & so do your team, friends and family.

It’s all so possible. Curated & personalised parties are where it’s at.

Have you booked your Christmas party venue yet?

We are entering the festive season & it’s party time in every shape or form! From office parties to celebratory intimate dinner tables for friends, the Brixton Warehouse is the perfect space. It’s the classic white brick warehouse with a cosy vibe, with backdrops for your party content, long tables & plenty of seating, a fully working kitchen for your catering. Loads of contacts to make your occasion go with a bang!

Have a look through some of our memories to get some inspiration! If you come to our space, you can make it yours and do it in your way.

The New Party Vibe

There’s nothing wrong with a good old boogie and an open bar but people are moving towards experiences & shared activities. Decide on your theme - crafting & making have been great successes to bring a team together, or add some games into the mix, great for breaking the ice and getting people to mix. Run a wellness workshop as a thank you to your staff instead of a traditional office party. You might want to hire a chef and have a relaxing meal with friends, and then a DJ and a little bit of dancing at the end. It’s time to party, and you all deserve it!

What Makes a Great Party?

Some of the key takeaways from our successful party organisers:

“Plan for interactive entertainment and photographic setups to boost social media buzz.”

We have a beautiful arch and other Insta-ready setups to record those happy memories. We have had full-on balloon arches and amazing set builds, as well as photographic booths.

The elegant, airy design includes delicate floral accents and showcases the venue’s potential for customised event décor and styled celebrations.

Create a Look

If you want to go all out with a theme and go for a set build, backdrop or balloon feature - go for an overall colour theme. Maybe create a mood board on Pinterest - it’s a great starting point for a party organiser or decorator to help you with your vision.

Personalisation is Key

“Personalise every detail to make guests feel valued and part of an immersive experience.”

A clever theme running through a party can certainly make your event stand out. From the invite to the activities has a thread that runs through. Take a leaf out of JET LOST’s book - they threw a family Sunday lunch get together with home-cooked Italian food, fun games & activities - like you are at home in your own living room. They created this home vibe to be welcoming for their audience, for students living abroad.

For a super supper party that completely steals the show, @brothersandsisters_ always has top in class settings. Their creative tablescapes evoke emotion and tell a story by balancing timeless elegance with modern statement pieces, such as luxurious textured linens, personalised accents, and unique place settings.

Interactive Fun & Games

Party organisers recommend immersive experiences like game playing and activities like painting to bring your guests together. People are really responding well to playing together for a fun evening. Plan ahead and get a schedule together so that you can time things to run in a certain order - maybe around food and dancing. Games are a great way of breaking the ice and getting everyone up. Ricardo’s party was full of fun & games - in fact, it was a games night! Mini basketball & the cup games were a big hit!

Wellness Over Wild?

Maybe a little bit of TLC might be called for this time of the year.

Rather than a full-out party, maybe treat them to a wellness event or a crafting activity - something you can all do together. You could arrange this yourself or ask an established teacher or crafter to run it for you.

We have had some really successful mindful & wellness events. @pilatesbyharriet ran a brunch Pilates day, and @rachelgreenmoves hosted a spectacular Pilates & pours event - mat Pilates, pours and paints. This event wasn’t short on good music and party vibes.

Think ahead - the calendar gets chocka over the build-up to Christmas. You could save your event til January and give them something to look forward to! The post-party season could be a thing. A restorative, refresh & reset party with wellness in mind could be a great way to start the year!

A Gentle Reminder: Looking After Each Other.

Remember, this time of the year isn’t easy for everyone. The pressure is on and a lot of people buckle. Please look out for everyone - parties can definitely be a breaking point for some. Keep a watchful eye on your people - a little bit of kindness goes a long way.

If you’re worried about a friend at a party or gathering, stay with them if you can and encourage them to reach out to one of these services, or to call 111 if they need urgent mental health help.
