Cirque at The Bloomsbury Big Top Christmas Party London – exclusive hire

Cirque at the Bloomsbury Big Top is built around a celestial circus theme, combining large-scale production with a format that's easy to organise: a Christmas party where the room feels alive from the moment your guests walk in. Booked exclusively, the big top, the show and the performers are all for your company.

Your evening begins with a sparkling drinks reception in a VIP-style bar, setting a relaxed start before moving into the main event. As your guests take their seats, the space opens up into a full circus-style dining environment, with ambient lighting, stage production and performers already in motion. A three-course dinner is served while the show unfolds around you, not just on a stage but across the room, with aerialists and fire performers creating moments throughout the night. It keeps people engaged without forcing attention in one direction.

As the evening progresses, the structure shifts naturally. Casino tables open, giving guests the option to move around, while the DJ and disco take over later on, turning the space into a more traditional party setting. There's also a photo booth and multiple touchpoints across the room, so your team can dip in and out of different elements rather than staying fixed at their table. It's a format that works well for mixed groups, with a clear flow but enough flexibility to suit different preferences.

The Bloomsbury Big Top in Central London is designed for scale. With capacity for up to 700 guests seated, it feels open without losing atmosphere. You're just a five-minute walk from Russell Square, with Euston and King's Cross also within easy reach, making it straightforward for guests travelling from across London.
