Expect flapper girls, feather boas, the red-hot rhythms of the speakeasy, casino tables, the Charleston… and feathers. Lots of feathers.
Gatsby’s Grand Soirée takes place in the heart of Manchester at The Mercure. There are great transport links… so maybe leave the Rolls Royce Phantom at home. Or just stay put, relax and book a room at this luxurious 4-star hotel venue.
The doors open to an event space which rivals Jay Gatsby’s mansion. Golden decor, low lighting and luxurious Art Deco motifs.
Over a delicious 3-course dinner, our live singer performs modern classics… in a 1920s style. Name that tune, anyone? And the 20s vintage vibe continues between courses as the flapper girls show off their best Charleston dance moves.

Impressive moves! That’s a 10 from Craig Revel Horwood.
The drinks are flowing, dinner has been enjoyed… and the entertainment has only just begun.
The dance floor has now opened. The party band is on stage and it’s time to shake your tail feather. If you fancy taking a break from the dancing, visit the glitter bar for some sparkly facial artistry, or try your luck at the Gatsby-style casino tables.
And don’t forget to visit the photo booth. Those photos will remind you of the best Christmas party choice you’ve ever made.

The venue is as central as you can get in Manchester — The Mercure Hotel, right next to Piccadilly Gardens. It’s perfect for dancing. There’s a purpose-built ballroom complete with a gallery overlooking the dance floor.
Travel links are excellent too. Manchester Piccadilly Station is within easy walking distance, and the city’s trams stop right outside the hotel.
Or why not kick back, relax and book an overnight stay. The Mercure offers 280 comfortable bedrooms with great views of the city.

Menus may change if certain ingredients are unavailable due to supply chain issues. We cater for all dietary requirements. Once you’ve booked, we’ll send you a function sheet so you can let us know about them. If anyone in your party requires Kosher food, please get in touch. It comes via a separate caterer and incurs an additional charge. Call us on 020 7183 3821 and we’ll talk you through it.
Half a bottle of wine, plus unlimited soft drinks are included in your ticket price.
Unlimited wine, beer and soft drinks are included in the ticket price.
Unlimited wine, beer and soft drinks — plus 6 single spirits (with or without mixers) or glasses of Prosecco.
You’ll be welcomed with a glass of Prosecco, then all-inclusive drinks are served from 8pm until 12.30pm.
There’s no dress code because we want you to relax and have a good time. However, you’ll want to look the part.
Black tie is always a good option, especially with a pocket square (folded handkerchief). Alternatively, go for a dark jacket with cream-coloured smart trousers and a straw boater. And how about a side parting?
We’re talking glamour and elegance. Fringed, beaded and sequined flapper dresses — black and dark red were popular 20s colours — long black gloves, jewelled and feathered headbands, long strings of pearls.
