Join us for a private Christmas party in December 2025 as The Brewery invites you to step into the wonderful world of The Midnight Carnival.
Rumours say it is a carnival like no other, suspended in time between 1899 and the present, where whispers of fortune, spectacle, and secrets linger. As night falls, the carnival awakens from its forgotten era, drawing guests into a web of intrigue and illusion, where nothing is quite as it seems.
But be warned - the enchantment is fleeting. When the clock strikes midnight, the carnival vanishes as suddenly as it appears, leaving only its mystery behind.
Our comprehensive party package includes exclusive hire of Smeaton Vaults for your exclusive Christmas party. The room will be fully themed and on arrival you will be greeted by entertainers and a 45 minute sparkling cocktail reception. You'll be well catered for throughout the night with 5.5 ours of unlimited house wine, beer and soft drinks, and a sumptuous three-course meal with coffee and petit fours, or a standing menu. There will be striking table centre displays with black linen, and an after-dinner DJ.
About The Smeaton Vaults
The Smeaton Vaults provide an interesting, private space for parties of around 100. Copper pipes around the walls and the original iron walkway reveal their brewing past but in reality, these rooms couldn’t be more modern. The Smeaton Vaults are two self-contained but interconnected vaulted rooms with an exclusive reception area and modern features. There is a built in DB audio pa system, a large projection area and a screen (additional charge to hire), the space is air-conditioned, and AMBX intelligent LED lighting in both spaces provides room wash, highlights vaulted ceiling and can interact with sound and images
