Everyone is in disguise. Who’s behind the mask?

What to expect at the Christmas Masquerade Ball
Your evening begins with a sparkling glass of Prosecco and a VIP welcome from our masked and costumed dancers.
Get ready to party because the bar is open for your all-inclusive drinks.
As you enjoy a 3-course candlelit dinner, our live singer entertains you with mellow, timeless classics. Between courses, our costumed performers show off their impressive dance moves.
Most parties fizzle out after dinner. At our Christmas Masquerade Ball, the entertainment has only just begun.
A live party band takes to the stage and the tempo temperature rises to dancing point.
If you can resist the dance floor, professional croupiers are waiting at the casino tables with free pretend casino chips.
And, if you haven’t done so already, remove your mask. It’s time to reveal your true identity!

The dress code
There’s no dress code because we want you to relax and have a good time.
But hey, this is a Christmas Masquerade Ball! It’s all about the masks. Do wear one (half-faced, obviously, otherwise dinner may be an issue). Simple and elegant or intricate and elaborate. Whichever suits your style.
We love it when our guests dress up, although a full-on Venetian costume is not everyone’s idea of practical party wear. Black tie and evening wear will do just fine.
"Thank you to Ryan and all at West End Events for a fabulous Christmas party. We really enjoyed it - everyone embraced the theme, the atmosphere was fantastic and we especially loved the band and brilliant dancers. Thank you"

Is there a dress code?
There is no dress code. However, it’s a masquerade ball, so it’s all about grandeur and elegance… and remember, everyone will be wearing a mask.
The menu
Will the hotel cater for different dietary requirements?
Yes they will. Once you’ve booked, we’ll send you a function sheet. Use this to let us know the names and dietary requirements of any guests. We’ll inform the chef so each person is catered for appropriately.
The only exception to this is Kosher food. It can’t be prepared at the hotel and comes via a separate caterer, so it incurs an additional cost. Call us on 020 7183 3821 and we’ll talk you through it.
Booking and admin
How much is the deposit? And when is it due?
To secure your booking, we’ll need a deposit of £45 + VAT per guest at the time of booking. The balance will be due 6 weeks (42 days) before the event.
Can I add additional guests later?
We’ll be as flexible as possible. Please let us know about any changes before 1st November and we’ll do our best to accommodate them. Provided there is availability, we’ll add to your booking —although please bear in mind, we cannot guarantee this.
If you want to add guests, contact us on 020 7183 3821 or email [email protected]. If there’s availability for extra guests, full payment will be required in order to secure the booking.
What’s the minimum and maximum number of guests I can book for?
The minimum number is 8 people. The maximum number varies according to venue.
