The Stanley Stephenson Lounge is available for £1,200 + VAT for the day and can accommodate up to 200 people.

Can I bring my own caterer or external food and drinks?

No, external catering is strictly prohibited. All food and beverage must be provided by Selhurst Park's in-house catering team, who offer a range of menus with varying cuisine and price points. They can accommodate dietary requirements if given advance notice.

What are the Christmas party packages and pricing?

Three festive packages are available: 'Dress to Impress' Joiner Party (£65 + VAT per person, fixed date 13th December), Festive Fizz & Bowl Food Private Party (£70 + VAT per person), and 'A Crystal Christmas' Private Party (£75 + VAT per person). All include sparkling reception, festive meal, entertainment, decorations, and complimentary parking from 6pm-midnight.

Are there accessibility limitations I should know about?

The Stanley Stephenson Lounge is located on the 2nd floor with no lifts or step-free entrances available. This makes the space inaccessible for elderly guests or people with mobility issues who cannot use stairs.

What are the restrictions on decorations and entertainment?

Linen and table numbers are provided within the room hire fee. External decorators are allowed but must provide PAT testing and public liability documentation for electrical equipment. No decorations can be tacked onto walls. External DJs must provide public liability insurance and PAT testing documentation 7 days prior to the event.

How long can buffets remain open and can I take leftover food home?

Buffets may be open for a maximum of 2 hours. Due to food safety policy, no leftover food can be taken home after the event.

What bar options are available and how does payment work?

Each space has a fully staffed bar within the venue. You can either choose a cash bar where guests pay individually, or arrange for drinks to be paid through your event account. Specific pricing and minimum spend requirements vary by package.

Are there any dates when the venue is unavailable?

The venue is closed on 23rd December and cannot host events on that date. Additionally, private parties cannot be held on dates when Crystal Palace has home Premier League matches, though fixture dates are typically confirmed closer to the season.

What audio-visual equipment is included and what are the requirements for presentations?

LCD mounted TV screens are included for displaying slideshows or graphics free of charge. Artwork must be sent 2 business days prior in PowerPoint or .mov format. LCD projectors and screens are available for corporate events, and you should advise in advance if slideshow visuals contain audio elements.

Is there flexibility on pricing for student groups or budget-conscious events?

Yes, there is some flexibility in pricing to meet specific budgets. For example, the venue was willing to reduce the Christmas party package from £65 + VAT to £55 per person for a student group, showing they can negotiate on price point depending on circumstances.
