AS CHRISTMAS SHOULD BE
CHRISTMAS COMPLETE Everyone who walks into the Hippodrome says the same thing. ‘Wow’ Absolutely everyone says it. And at roughly the same point. It’s when they walk through this former Victorian theatre’s entrance way and reach the magic of the main auditorium. ‘Wow’ And they look around. Sixty feet up to the Minstrel’s Gallery, then towards the cabaret theatre and across to the cocktail bar, then to the restaurant. All overlooking the UK’s largest and most splendid casino gaming floor. ‘Wow’ That ‘Wow’ is exactly what the guests at your Christmas event will be saying. The Hippodrome is the West End’s largest casino and entertainment venue. Which is why we ask that you ring us to tell us what kind of Christmas event you would like to hold here.
