FROM your first list of possible party ideas through to the last dance on the night, the Park Inn by Radisson in Northampton has got to be high on the list of favourites.
The town centre hotel has a whole host of ideas, starting off with party nights from late November, right through the festive season itself and on to New Year’s Eve.
The Holly Jolly party nights are great value for money, offering an arrival drink, a two-course meal, novelties and a DJ and disco from just £25 per person, while the Christmas Party nights are £38 per person and include a three-course meal, novelties and DJ and disco. Christmas Party Nights start on Saturday, 2 December and are then held every Friday and Saturday throughout December until Friday, December 22.
For those who want to leave the cooking to someone else on Christmas Day, the Park Inn by Radisson Christmas Day Lunch includes a glass of fizz, a four-course meal and a gift from Santa for the children.
Starters include roasted butternut squash, sweet potato and rosemary soup; smoked salmon, cream cheese and spinach roulade and duck and fig terrine; while the main courses feature sea trout, pan-fried honey glazed breast of Gressingham duck and caramelized red onion and goat’s chees pithivier, as well as the traditional roast turkey with a twist – turkey, apricot and sage paupiette wrapped in streaky bacon.
Christmas Day Lunch costs £58 per person and £31 for children aged three to 12 years. Children under three eat free.
The New Year’s Eve Party – with the invitation to ‘dress to impress’ features an arrival drink, a three-course hot buffet, a drink to toast the new year at midnight, and entertainment throughout the evening. Tickets at £38 per person.
