Christmas event planning for 2026 is already underway, and venue-finding specialist ExecSpace is recommending organisations start planning early to secure the best options for their festive celebrations.
ExecSpace’s managing director, Lucy McNicoll, says: ”It may only be April, but when it comes to Christmas parties, early planning can make a significant difference. From improved venue choice and availability to reduced stress later in the year, getting ahead helps ensure a smoother run-up to the festive season..
“Alongside traditional private dining experiences, many organisations are now exploring more interactive festive formats. Competitive social venues are becoming increasingly popular, offering teams a more relaxed and engaging alternative to formal Christmas dinners.
Across Aberdeen and Grampians, there is a wide variety of venues available for larger private Christmas parties, ranging from hotels and dedicated event spaces to more contemporary and interactive venues. The most popular dates are already starting to be secured well in advance, particularly for larger corporate groups.”
ExecSpace regularly books festive events at social venues such as Puttshack, Golf Fang, Boom Battle Bar and F1 Arcade, alongside bowling and entertainment-style venues such as Roxy Lanes and Lane7. These options are ideal for team celebrations, offering a more informal setting with food, drinks and activities included.
For smaller teams, join in parties also remain a strong option. These shared events offer a lively festive atmosphere without the need for a fully private booking, with package pricing often including food, drinks and entertainment.
