Looking for Christmas party venues in Nottingham and Leicester in 2026? Whether you are organising a work do, a family get-together or a night out with friends, here are the options at Merchant of Venice — from a full party night with entertainment to a relaxed Christmas dinner for the group.
Option 1: Christmas Party Nights at Vantom Village (near Nottingham)
Our biggest Christmas party option is the Christmas Party Nights at Vantom Village, at Patchings Art Centre, Calverton. They run on 21 November and 5 December 2026 at £39 per head, with a festive three-course dinner, live music and a DJ, a close-up magician and dancing until late. Corporate groups, families and friends are all welcome, and private parties can be booked on any date from 1 November.
Option 2: The Christmas Menu in Leicester or Nottingham
From 1 December, Granby Street, Loseby Lane and Patchings serve our 3-course Christmas menu at £36.95 per person. It is a good fit for smaller teams and groups who want a relaxed table rather than a full party night.

Birthdays and celebrations are welcome all year. See our private dining and party bookings guide and the Party Menu (PDF).
