Around the World in 80 Days at Finsbury Square
We at Smart Christmas Parties are devastated to be unable to go ahead with our parties for 2020. We're delighted to be able to offer our incredible Virtual Christmas Parties to ensure you can still celebrate together this year, but cannot wait to welcome you back to Willows Activity Farm in 2021.
Let your imagination soar and make like Phileas Fogg as you explore our Around the World in 80 Days Christmas party for Winter 2021. We’ve invested heavily into incredible theming that will take you from Ancient Egypt to the snowy hills of Kathmandu, via the souks of Marrakech and ornate temples of Japan. An incredible bespoke catering offering from Smart Hospitality is included, with a sparkling wine reception on arrival followed by unlimited drinks all evening or ½ bottle of wine per person, alongside a choice of either bowl food or a three-course seated dinner.
Also included is a high-end production specification, including a stage, screens, intelligent sound and lighting and a dance floor if required, providing you with a turnkey solution for your event. With pre-installed theming and production already in place, this allows you valuable time to rehearse and prepare for your event. We also offer the ability to upgrade your event to include fully designed and choreographed entertainment to perfectly complement the theme.
