If you’re planning a corporate Christmas party in Leeds and looking for somewhere a little more stylish than the average tinsel-strewn hotel function room, New Craven Hall has you covered. Tucked into the city’s emerging South Bank district, just a short walk from Leeds Station, this industrial-chic venue pairs raw warehouse charm with twinkling fairy lights and a whole lot of festive potential.
The Main Hall is a versatile blank canvas, spacious enough for 200 seated or up to 250 guests standing. Exposed brickwork and polished concrete give it that effortlessly cool, modern edge, while warm lighting and atmospheric touches transform the space into something seriously special when the Christmas décor comes out. There’s even a grand curtain that can divide the space for more intimate celebrations or smaller teams.
The Bar, just off the Main Hall, offers a more laid-back lounge area - perfect for cocktail sipping and catch-ups after a spin around the dancefloor. Expect copper accents, dimmed lighting, and that slightly boozy festive glow that only a December night out with colleagues can provide.
Outdoors, The Yard gives you the option to add an al fresco twist, complete with cosy lighting and space for street food vans or winter drinks. Imagine mulled wine in hand, wrapped up under fairy lights: this isn’t your average office Christmas party.
Whether you’re planning a festive dinner, a drinks-led celebration, or an evening of dancing and entertainment, New Craven Hall’s events team is on hand to help make it all happen. Choose from their curated packages or go fully bespoke with your own suppliers, entertainment and catering. However you celebrate, you’ll be supported by a small but experienced team who know how to throw a good party.
Plus, with discounted rates at nearby hotels like the Clayton and Malmaison, guests can make a night of it without worrying about the journey home. Modern, flexible and full of atmosphere, New Craven Hall is the perfect spot to give the office Christmas party the glow-up it deserves. No sad crackers, no beige buffets - just a brilliant night in a seriously good space.
