Christmas Parties

 If you are looking for somewhere with a special atmosphere to celebrate Christmas with colleagues or a group of friends, you can hire Dragon Hall and tailor-make an occasion to meet your requirements, or we can offer a competitively priced package.

The Great Hall is traditionally decorated every December with a beautiful, tall pine tree, holly, ivy and candles.  One of our excellent caterers can offer lunch or dinner.  We can supply a bar or a choice of wines from our wine merchant and you are also able to enjoy a band or disco in the Gallery.

Prices start from £25 per head for a Christmas lunch.  Please contact us at info@dragonhall.org with details of your requirements.
