What this party includes
Let's get this party started
This December, the Manchester Central Christmas Party transforms into a dazzling celestial celebration, complete with exhilarating entertainment, festive feasting, and an electric atmosphere. Step into 2025's theme: "Stargazer" where you can party beneath the stars in the heart of Manchester.
As you mingle outside the entrance, a warm inviting glow offers a teasing glimpse of what lies within. Once inside, the vista is mesmerising. Sparkling golds and dancing beams of light whirl overhead, highlighting the party scene in full flow. The venue exudes class and elegance, together with a high-spirited, vivacious atmosphere.
You make your way to the main bar where friends and family wait, you recognise upbeat tunes of well-known classics and funky beats of modern party tunes as carefree conversation buzzes around. Professional mixologists mix iconic drinks in the cocktail bar, while the main bars offer traditional beers, spirits, crisp wines, and delicious canapés are offered around the room for you to sample.
As you take your seat for dinner, the focus moves to the stage as the evening’s entertainment gathers pace. Hand-picked world-class circus entertainers perform the impossible with daring poise and grace to a backdrop of fire. As the last spoonful of dessert is devoured, the lights cut to an explosion of light and sound marking the beginning of a spectacular finale.
After-dinner entertainment is plentiful – 3 indoor fairground rides (including dodgems, waltzer and twist rides) whir into action, the fun casino opens its tables, fairground stalls and the 360 camera come to life. Whilst some guests enjoy fresh coffee, chocolates and a midnight breakfast roll under twinkling lights, the dance floor beckons for those whose night is still young!
