London Battersea Off Piste Christmas Party 2010
London Battersea Christmas Party Theme - Off Piste
As the winter party season closes in, the slopes of Chamonix and Val d'Isère hold hypnotic appeal for many of us. Breathtaking scenery, sumptuous food and superior wines go hand-in-hand with boisterous entertainment, rowdy revellers and sporting endeavour. This year join us on your chosen night for an unforgettable evening of 'Off Piste', where a non-stop party of Après-style revelling is guaranteed; an electrifying blend of ice cool glamour and red hot groove set in the exquisite surrounding of a breathtaking alpine winter wonderland .
As you sweep into the beautiful surroundings of Battersea Park, the magnificent glass frontage of the Christmas venue glistens like an ice palace, as thousands of fairy lights draped on beautifully dressed trees illuminate its soaring ceiling. Having disposed of your hats and coats, you are beckoned to enter a surreal iridescent forest of ice, lit magically in frosty violets and blues
Your heartbeat instantly rises and you feel the atmosphere suddenly change tempo as you emerge from the frosted forest into the heart of a bustling Alpine Village, where a dizzying array of lively bars vie for your attention. Whether your preference is for bubbling Champagne, high octane shots, speciality beers, fine wines or warming winter cocktails, every taste and whim is catered for. Whilst bar-hopping, you can savour an array of mouth-watering canapés and marvel at the breath-taking assortment of entertainment taking place around you.
London - Off Piste Entertainment
Acrobats, fire acts, dancers and aerialists: spin, writhe, whirl and gyrate to the accompaniment of raucous music; re-creating the noisy bustling atmosphere of many an Alpine resort. As you chat and mingle with friends & colleagues amongst the bars, dinner is called
Descend from the thriving bar scene into a fantastical winter wonderland, where an exquisitely decorated candle-lit dining room is encased in a forest of sparkling snow-topped fir trees - an enchanting atmosphere in which to begin your Christmas celebrations.
A lavish, freshly prepared menu is served at beautifully dressed tables, which appear to shimmer and sparkle under a layer of glittering frost. Succulent meats, tasty vegetables, warm breads and inspired desserts pay homage to the cuisine and fine wines served in only the most elite ski resorts! As the food, drink and banter flow, entertainers appear to raise the tempo once more.
High overhead, a vast canopy of glistening icicles floats magically. Lit by a rippling wave of deep and soothing colours; it shimmers and undulates like a cosmic Aurora Borealis. From time to time it descends majestically, revealing an ice-smooth stage where a myriad of entertainment unfolds. Skaters whirl across its surface; aerial acts swing from the starlit ceiling and dancers and acrobats fill the floor with a seething mass of energy and verve.
As dinner comes to an end, the icicle stage ascends upwards with spell-binding grandeur and unveils underneath, an immense polished dance-floor which our superb DJ beckons you to fill for a night of non-stop party music and dancing...
For those who prefer not to go straight to the floor, there are a multitude of treats, indulgences and delights to pursue instead. The adrenalin junkies venture onto the dodgems, cruise the cocktail bars or down shots from the giant ice luge for some high spirited fun, while those with more refined tastes can sample the giant white chocolate fountain, perhaps followed with a glass of iced champagne whilst trying their hand at one of the casino tables.
As the evening accelerates at a pace and the music shows no sign of slowing down, dodgem cars whiz around while cannons explode over the dance floor showering it with a deluge of streamers and wild colours of confetti. For those who have experienced the atmosphere of Après Ski before, be prepared for your finest and most memorable moments to be re-lived. For those Après Ski virgins be prepared for Off Piste to take your breath away!
