Want to leave the Aston Martin at home? Feel free. Your James Bond Christmas Party venue is the luxurious Sheraton Grand Hotel in central Edinburgh with excellent transport links.

What to expect at the James Bond themed Christmas party

You’ll be welcomed with a glass of Prosecco as you make an entrance on the VIP red carpet. There’s plenty of time for photos before the banqueting room doors open to the iconic 007 theme tune.

While you’re served a delicious 3-course dinner with half bottle wine, show off your Bond knowledge by matching the film to the famous theme songs as they play in the background.

The drinks are flowing, dinner has been enjoyed… and the entertainment has only just begun. It’s time for the live band.

When the music switches from cool Bond to the hottest grooves on the planet, everyone will want to be on the dance floor. If you can resist the music, try your luck at 007-style casino tables, or get your face bling on at the glitter bar.

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 menu

Will the hotel cater for different dietary requirements?

The only exception to this is Kosher food. This cannot be prepared at the hotel. It comes via a separate caterer and incurs an additional charge. Call us on 020 7183 3821 and we’ll talk you through it.

If you want to add guests, contact us on 020 7183 3821 or email [email protected]. We’ll let you straight away if there’s availability. If there’s enough space for additional guests, full payment will be required in order to secure the booking.
