Planning Timeline

When to Book Your Christmas Party Bar.

Christmas party bar hire follows a predictable demand curve. December Saturdays in Central and West London sell out first, typically by mid-October. Fridays follow by early November. By late November, availability is limited to weekday evenings and venues in South and East London where demand peaks later.

August-September

Secure your date and venue. Best availability.

October-November

Confirm menu, guest count, and logistics.

December

Event delivery. Limited last-minute slots.

For teams of 100+ guests, an early planning call is recommended to confirm bar placement, staffing ratios, and whether the venue can accommodate a mobile bar alongside existing catering. Request a quote with your preferred date and we will confirm availability within 24 hours.

01 - What's Included

What Christmas Bar Hire Includes.

Every Christmas party bar hire booking includes a mobile bar unit, licensed bartenders, a festive cocktail menu, quality glassware, ice, garnishes, and full setup and strike. We arrive 60 minutes before your guests and have the bar dressed, stocked, and ready to serve by the time the first person walks in.

All-inclusive packages cover the full festive drinks bill: seasonal cocktails, prosecco, spirits, beer, soft drinks, and non-alcoholic options. Public liability insurance and personal alcohol licences are included on every booking. Where a Temporary Event Notice (TEN) is required, we advise on the process and can co-apply on your behalf.

02 - Festive Menu

Festive Cocktail Menu.

Our Christmas cocktail menu leads with seasonal serves built for a December crowd. The Spiced Negroni (sloe gin, sweet vermouth, orange bitters, cinnamon) and the Cranberry French 75 (gin, lemon, cranberry, prosecco) are consistent bestsellers. The Mulled Wine Spritz and Cinnamon Old Fashioned round out the seasonal list. Every menu includes a non-alcoholic Spiced Apple Punch.

All-year classics, Espresso Martini, Aperol Spritz, and Pornstar Martini, sit alongside the festive menu so guests who prefer something familiar are covered. Beer, wine, and soft drinks are available as add-ons. See our full cocktail menu for the complete drinks list and pricing.

03 - Office Parties

Office Christmas Party Bar Hire.

Office Christmas parties in London typically run at hired venues, function rooms, warehouses, private dining spaces, or rooftop bars, where the company brings their own catering and bar. Our mobile bar hire service fits this model exactly: we arrive at your hired space, set up a professional bar, and operate it for the duration of your party. No venue bar to negotiate with, no corkage fees.

Corporate Christmas bar hire includes a named company liaison who manages the drink schedule, confirms guest volumes with you during the event, and coordinates with venue staff on access and logistics. For events with 100+ colleagues, we recommend a dedicated planning call to confirm bar placement, staffing ratios, and drink flow. See our corporate event bar hire page for full details on corporate packages.

Christmas Party Bar Hire FAQ.

How much does Christmas party bar hire in London cost? +

Christmas party bar hire in London is quoted around the event format, guest count, duration and drinks selection. All-inclusive bar service starts from £6.50 per person per hour; request a date-specific quote for your office or private party.

Do you provide festive cocktail menus for Christmas events? +

Yes. Our Christmas cocktail menu includes the Spiced Negroni, Mulled Wine Spritz, Cinnamon Old Fashioned, Cranberry French 75, and a non-alcoholic Spiced Apple Punch. Every booking includes a menu consultation so we can match the drink selection to your company or party theme.

How far in advance should I book a Christmas party bar? +

December weekends in central London fill by October. Book as early as possible, we typically confirm the last available December slots by mid-November. If your preferred date is sold out, we can often offer an adjacent Friday or a different venue configuration. Call 020 8087 4269 to check availability.

Can you do a bar for an office Christmas party in a hired venue? +

Yes. Office Christmas party bar hire is one of our busiest service categories. We cover City offices, Canary Wharf function rooms, Shoreditch warehouses, Soho private dining rooms, and hotel event spaces. For venues that allow you to bring your own bar, we handle everything from setup to licensing. For venues that have their own bar, see our bar staff hire page.

Do you require a Temporary Event Notice for a Christmas party? +

A Temporary Event Notice (TEN) is required when alcohol is sold at a premises that does not hold a premises licence, and the event has more than a very small number of attendees. Many hired Christmas party venues hold their own licence, we confirm the licensing position at the quote stage and advise accordingly. Our bartenders hold personal licences as standard.

When should I start planning my Christmas party bar hire? +

Begin planning in September. December Saturdays in Central and West London sell out first, often by mid-October. Fridays fill by early November. By the time December arrives, availability is limited to weekday evenings. If you are organising for a team of 100+ people, book as early as August to secure your preferred date and venue slot.

Can you run both alcoholic and non-alcoholic bars at a Christmas party? +

Yes. Every Christmas party booking includes a zero-proof cocktail menu alongside the standard festive drinks list. The Spiced Apple Punch and a non-alcoholic version of the Mulled Wine Spritz are popular December choices. Both menus run from the same bar, there is no separate station for non-drinkers.
