Burlesque - Ardingly

Possibly the best Christmas party in Ardingly on the cards at Burlesque. This super festive mega event, held at the South of England Event Centre, will transport you back to Paris, 1896; the mood is electric, the air is sultry, entertainment and food are first-rate. This is one Christmas party not to be missed.

After a VIP entrance make your way to the champagne bar or the cocktail lounge for drinks; glamour exudes here with a laid back soundtrack and scintillating performances from artists adorned with sparkling gemstones and feathers. In the Razzle-Dazzle Bar, the atmosphere is provocative with sounds pumping out and showgirls performing in gilded birdcages in true burlesque style.

An enormous twinkling ceiling sets the scene for a three-course dinner served by award winning caterers, each dish made even more marvellous by a burst of stunning entertainment from a world-class cast. Put your music knowledge to the test to win a round of shots for your table, then sit back and enjoy an extravaganza of acrobatic silks, suspended hoops, and a Can-Can finale.

Then it is casino time! Have a flutter at roulette or Blackjack then check out the wall of giant doughnuts, the live ice cream theatre and call in at the Fever Tree Gin bar for a spin on the dodgems. Shake a leg on the dance floor to current mixes and old school favourites or find your own groove in the silent disco zone. Keep partying till midnight when it’s time for the Survivor’s Breakfast – and on! One great big night to remember!

Burlesque runs from 30th November to 22nd December. On site parking, nearest train station, Haywards Heath. Book your tickets now!
