How much space per person is recommended for a seated Christmas banquet for 100 guests?

Allocate 1.2–1.4 m² per person for a plated Christmas banquet, totalling 120–140 m² of dining area. Add a further 30–40 m² for circulation, staging or performance space. Confirm measurements with the venue’s floor plan.

How far in advance should I book a Chelsea venue for 100 guests at Christmas?

Book 6–9 months ahead (April–June) to secure prime weekends in November–December. Many popular Chelsea venues require deposits by September and will be fully booked by October. Early booking ensures best rates, full staffing and first choice of festive decor themes.

What deposit terms are typical for a Christmas party venue in Chelsea for 100 people?

Most venues require a 25–50% non-refundable deposit upon booking, due 1–3 months in advance. Balance is usually settled 4 weeks before the event. Larger London venues may ask for instalments and proof of corporate account.

What themes work best for a 100-person Christmas party in Chelsea?

Popular themes include "Winter Wonderland" with white drapes and fairy lights; "Vintage Christmas" using classic baubles and velvet textures; or "Modern Glam" with metallic accents. Choose one focal area (entry, bar or stage) for maximum impact.

What are the maximum licensed hours for Christmas parties in Chelsea?

Standard licences in Chelsea typically permit alcohol sales and music until midnight. With a temporary event notice, you can extend to 1 am, but venues often close by 12.30 am to comply with RBKC noise regulations.

What budget per head should I plan for a Christmas party in Chelsea for 100 people?

Expect to spend £80–£150 per guest in Chelsea, covering venue hire, three-course dining, two hours of drinks, basic AV and staffing. Peak season (mid-Nov to 20 Dec) commands rates at the upper end; off-peak January events can be 10–15% cheaper.

Which AV facilities are essential for a Chelsea Christmas party hosting 100 attendees?

Ensure the venue provides a PA system with 2 handheld microphones, a 4K projector (or large LED screen), wireless Internet (50 Mbps+), LED uplighting and a DJ connection (RCA/XLR). On-site tech support during the event is vital.

How can I incorporate live entertainment at a Chelsea Christmas party for 100?

Allocate a 3×4 m stage or DJ booth zone, plus 2 speaker stands. Book professional entertainers (band, DJ or magician) at least 3 months in advance. Factor in performer back-line needs and soundcheck time—typically 1 hour before doors.
