Hire the perfect unique Christmas party venue in Birmingham

What do Santa’s little helpers learn at school? The elf-abet.

Okay, bad joke aside, this venue is a right hoot. As you’d expect from the name, The Glee Club is home to live comedy, music, and cabaret shows in Birmingham.

The well-worn black stage (backed by an unmissable “Glee” sign) has been graced by plenty of comedians. Their weekly line-up is anything from group comedy shows and tours, poetry nights, and Christmas comedy specials to a drag ABBA medley.

Regular events aside, this venue has three spaces to hire – the Main Room, Studio Room, and Ground Floor, with their Main Room holding up to 600 standing guests (and 400 seated). It’s yours to do what you want with it, but The Glee Club team is on hand to help.

Now, the stage is set. You’re up next.

Mortal Kombat? Pac-Man? Golden Axe? GameCube, anyone? Relive your arcade dreams at the NQ64 Arcade Bar in Birmingham. In this neon-paint splattered intergalactic-style venue, travel back in time to the 80s and find nostalgic games like RoboCop, Street Fighter and TNMT.

Leave your coins at home, it’s tokens only here. Sip on one of NQ64’s pun-filled games-themed drinks. How does a glass of Donkey Kolada or Sweet Fighter sound while battling it out to win?

For a Christmas party that’s a little more fun that your typical office do, this venue has private room hire for up to 80 guests.

When you first walk into Heidi’s, there are a few things you notice. The wood interiors, walls fitted with logs and decorated with skis, the snowboards and rackets give off a mismatched rustic vibe.

Then there are the disco balls, the old ski lift and the ski shot glass holders. It’s a lot like coming back to your cabin after a long day of skiing – sit back and relax in a booth with a pint or a Jägerbomb.

With 3 rooms for private hire, this venue can host up to 1100 guests, so best for any big Christmas blowouts. Have an impromptu photo session in the photo-booth or maybe a game (or two).

It’s Oktoberfest all year round, even at Christmas.
