The most brrrr-illiant all-inclusive party in town

Twinkling festive lights, icicles and snowflakes, a fairytale ice palace, snow-themed decor… and all-inclusive drinks.

Are you dreaming of a white Christmas? The Ice Palace Christmas Party in London delivers it with festive bells on. It’s our most Christmassy party.

This is a magical midwinter experience — like walking through crisp, sparkling winter snow (only without the chilly temperatures and red nose).

The Ice Palace Christmas Party is an all-inclusive event in central London. Wine, beer and soft drinks are included, so you won’t have to get your wallet out all evening.

What to expect at the Ice Palace Christmas Party

As you make a grand entrance on the VIP red carpet, you’ll be welcomed with a festive glass of Prosecco.

There’s plenty of time for photos before the doors open to a winter wonderland. Think sparkly twig trees, twinkly lights and candelabras, a fairytale ice palace, giant icicles and snowflakes.

A delicious 3-course Christmas dinner is served, and your all-inclusive package means that the drinks are flowing, the conversation is as sparkly as the decor… and the entertainment is about to begin!

The dance floor is open. A fantastic live band is playing some of the most danceable tunes on the planet. If you fancy a break from the dancing, try your luck with blackjack and roulette at the casino tables.

Our professional face painters are waiting at the glitter bar, ready to add some beautifully applied sparkle to your evening.

And don’t forget, you can visit the photo booth as many times as you like. Those photos will remind you of the best Christmas party decision you’ve ever made.

Ice Palace Christmas Party London Venue

Our Ice Palace Christmas Party is in central London at the Hilton Paddington. This famous 4-star venue was designed by Brunel as part of Paddington Station’s terminus building. Transport links, both overground and underground, couldn’t be any better.

The event space itself is beautiful — a traditional ballroom with high ceilings, chandeliers and a classy blend of Art Deco and contemporary aesthetics. If you fancy a pre-party drink, we recommend 146 Paddington, the hotel’s London-inspired cocktail bar.

The Hilton Paddington is perfect for an overnight stay. It offers over 400 stylish, spacious rooms plus a fitness centre.

"Had a great time at the Ice Palace event hosted by West End Events. Went to the Great Gatsby event in 2021 which was also fantastic. Great food, excellent band and all-round great service. They were very accommodating to our requests and ensured we had a great night! Looking forward to going again in 2023!"
