Bombay Sapphire Distillery

Boasting incredible architecture, wonderful event space and a location which is easily accessed from London by train, the Bombay Sapphire Distillery is a unique venue to host your company’s Christmas party. Whether it's a private banquet for 30 people or a huge Christmas bash for 400 (you can hire out the entire venue), there are a variety of spaces and packages to ensure you spend the festive season in style.

Based at Laverstoke Mill which is set in a conservation area steeped in history, the Bombay Sapphire Distillery offers a space which can be transformed into a Christmas party venue suited to any needs. Sitting right on the banks of the River Test, the gorgeous Georgian and Victorian buildings which now house the distillery were, for years, where bank note paper was produced for the bank of England, giving the distillery a further sense of historical importance.

If you choose to have your Christmas party at the distillery your guests will be greeted with welcome cocktails. They will then have the chance to look around the two exquisite intertwining glass houses, which were designed by Heatherwick Studios and brilliantly represent the fun approach which Bombay Sapphire have to crafting gin. Within the glasshouses guests will also have the chance to experience the different botanicals which they infuse their gins with.

Once your luxurious drinks reception is over, guests can then head over to the distillery’s main event space - The Gallery - which seats up to 140 people for dinner and comes beautifully decorated with Christmas lights and decorations. They will then enjoy a three-course Christmas banquet specially designed for parties, with all the classic trimmings and of course crackers on the side. Before taking to the dancefloor, there is the opportunity to sample more of the distillery’s classic cocktails in the large Mill bar.

With the option to either organise your own private Christmas party for your company at the distillery or, if you’re looking to keep costs down, take part in a joiner party, there will be something that works for you regardless of your requirements.
