Weekend No2 DISCO23 and it was a corker!

Another completely sold out run of events, and even the bridge closure and traffic chaos on Friday, didn’t deter our determined party goers from getting here and dancing the night away!

It was sparkles and sequins galore on both nights, and the live entertainment from Just Jay Dance and Aerial All Stars Essex took our breath away once again.

Just four more DISCO nights to go until we close our doors for the final time.

Who’s joining us next weekend to get your groove on?
us know in the comments below and tag your party in the comments.

We’ll choose one of you to receive a bottle of complementary Prosecco on the night 🍾

See you all on the dance floor 🕺🏽🪩💃🏼🎄

Sadly we have been made aware of yet another FAKE EVENT naming our venue as the host for a Christmas Fayre in December!

The person listing our FAKE event is popping up on lots of different local community pages, so if you see any please report them immediately.

One stall holder almost paid a stall fee via PayPal but thought to check with us first earlier today.

Please be careful and never pay anyone advertising an event we have never mentioned.

The only events we have left between now and the end of December are our sold out DISCO23 party nights, and there are no tickets remaining for any of those dates either.

Thank you

4 days to go, are you ready to SHOP TILL YOU DROP??

We’ve had an exciting day as the second giant marquee went up and is now ready to be decorated tomorrow. 🎄🍷🧑🏼‍🎄

Which brings us nicely to our next hero supplier mention.

We are thrilled to have Emma's Florist and her team join us again this year, as one of our local independent businesses in the main atrium hall.
Her festive displays are always breathtaking and we challenge you not to be tempted to buy a decoration or two (or three!)
Even more exciting is that Emma and her team will be decorating our grand staircase and installing a Christmas Tree at the entrance of the Food Quarter marquee!

Prepare to be dazzled as you enter the venue this year 🎄🧑🏼‍🎄

5 days and counting…….🎄🎅🏼🧑🏼‍🎄🍷

Is anyone thirsty?

Our Christmas Shopping Event Extravaganza wouldn’t be an extravaganza without lots of incredible artisan drinks makers and shakers.

Lots of them can be found in the food quarter directly in front of the Georgian mansion.

Including craft Ales by the to incredible distilled spirits and liqueurs from East Coast Distillery The Old Felixstowe Brewing Co.

Jonathan’s Mulled Wine Bar will be open each day serving cups of delicious festive cheer along with a range of Adnams beers and Niche Cocktails 🎄🍷.
The only decision you’ll need to make is who is the designated driver on the day? 🚗

If hot chocolates and coffee is more your thing both Combat2Coffee and The TeaPod will be on hand to keep you going throughout the show days.

Phase two of the big build starts tomorrow and we’ll keep you posted of what we’re up to right up until showtime on the 3rd November!

Priority tickets are selling like hot mince pies via our website, so head over there now to avoid the queues on the day.
