Another year, another much-anticipated Winter Soirée at Leez Priory!
Get ready for an unforgettable evening of festive sparkle, exceptional dining and dazzling entertainment. Join us on Thursday 3rd December 2026 for our much-anticipated Winter Event, a celebration you won’t want to miss.
From 6pm, you’ll be warmly welcomed with a festive cocktail and seasonal canapés, setting the tone for the evening ahead. At 7pm, take your seat in our Dining Room and indulge in a beautifully prepared, lavish three-course dinner, created to capture the flavours of the season.
If you’re staying overnight in one of our charming bedrooms, check-in is available from 5pm. This gives you time to unwind, change into your finest attire and perhaps enjoy a stroll around the grounds before the festivities begin. The house will be glowing with Christmas charm and set as the perfect surroundings for a magical winter’s night.
Our Head Chef has thoughtfully curated a menu of festive favourites, promising flavours to delight every palate. Once dinner is done, the celebrations continue with fantastic entertainment and dancing late into the night. Be sure to bring your dancing shoes!
Be it the office party, a family celebration, or a festive evening with friends, we will be on hand to help you toast to the year gone by!
