It’s less than 90 sleeps ’til Christmas.

And while the twinkly lights and the festive cocktails might feel a little way off just yet, the more organised among us are nabbing the best Christmas party locations right now.

In fact, Cork’s Imperial Hotel has just released this year’s Christmas bash brochure, which is packed with fun options for get-togethers of all sizes this party season.

We’ve had a sneak peek and here are some of the best ideas to book now: 

Best for: The big corporate do

The Imperial Hotel’s Classic Ballroom is ideal for larger Christmas celebrations. Think crystal chandeliers, sparkling, silk-lined period panelled walls, luxurious table decor, elegant centrepieces, and personalised menus.

Your guests will enjoy prosecco or mulled wine on arrival and a four-course dinner with accompanying wine at €75 per person (minimum 80 guests).

Best for: The office party

If you’re after something slightly more intimate, you can welcome your guests into the beautiful and elegant Lafayette’s for a uniquely glam festive dining experience this year.

Enjoy a delicious four-course meal with mince pies, Christmas crackers, and plenty of other surprises under the stunning painted ceiling in this unique venue for €60 per person.

Best for: Family reunions and friends groups 

At Sketch, you can catch up with friends over delicious food and impressively original cocktails.

Ideal for loud laughter and decadently long afternoons and evenings, Sketch is a festive oasis of informal charm at Christmas. Enjoy a delicious four-course meal for €60 per person for all group bookings over ten people.

Best for: Festive fun with your loved ones

Festive Afternoon Tea at The Imperial is one of the highlights of the season in Cork.

Enjoy tasty finger sandwiches, freshly baked scones with fresh whipped cream and jams, and a wide range of teas and coffees. The full Christmas-themed Afternoon Tea will be announced soon but it will be available at €49 per person with a Christmas cocktail.
