    “This was honestly the best night out I've had in ages, just a wicked atmosphere and a proper laugh from start to finish. It is something different for Preston, and I couldn't recommend it enough.”

    — Rory Cocker | Preston Pulse

    “ I was genuinely blown away by the atmosphere, fun, and coordination of the event, all packed into a tent and a few rooms beneath the tracks. It was well put together, and the team did a spectacular job of bringing a new concept to Preston that deserves some recognition..”

  • Preston's Ultimate Christmas Night Out

    Aprés-Ski style!

  • Our vibe

    Forget the crap hotel chrismas party and swap ball gowns for bobble hats!

    Join us for a high-energy festive night with live music from The Pub Party Piste Up, optional bottomless Bavarian street food, and a lively indoor-outdoor alpine vibe.

    Think ski lodge meets party central—no frills, just good times.

    Dress for the slopes, not the red carpet.

    Grab your friends, wrap up warm, and get ready to party.

  • FAQ

    Tables

    Everyone has a seat at a table.

    Seating is on Bongo's Bingo / Oktoberfest-style benches.

    Is it indoors?

    It is both indoors and outdoors - everything is undercover. We have a large marquee in the yard, plus our studio spaces.

    Do we have to dress up?

    Just dress for a Christmas market-style event. If you want to go the whole hog and get a ski-suit, then go for it, but it is certainly not compulsory.

    There is limited heating, so dress warm.

    Is the marquee heated?

    There is a large heater in the marquee that takes the chill off. It doesn't bring it up to room temperature, but you know it is on!

    Food & dietary

    We have Vegan, Vegetarian and GF options available.

    Drink

    Our bar serves a variety of alcoholic, zero and soft drinks.

    We will also have a cocktail bar too.
