Festive Afternoon Tea in Alice's Parlour
🎆 Ring in 2026 at Oddfellows Chester: New Year’s Eve Open House Party 
 
This New Year’s Eve, join us for a night of joy, laughter, and togetherness at Oddfellows Chester — our annual House Party is back, open to everyone, and ready to welcome 2026 in true Oddfellows style. Picture this: the whole house buzzing with energy, friendly faces everywhere, music, cocktails — and cozy corners to escape into when you want something a little more relaxed. Whether you want to dance, lounge, or just watch the year turn, we’ve created a space just for you. 
 
🕺 Downstairs: Dance, Music & Merriment 
The Lounge Bar transforms into a playground of celebration — DJ-led beats, a party atmosphere that’s as inclusive as it is electric, and a great space to dance, chat, and make memories. Bring your friends, bring your A-game, or just bring yourself — the mood is free, playful, and full of possibility. 
 
🍸 Upstairs Bar: Sophisticated & Laid-Back 
Looking for something a little more refined? Head up to our grown-up bar, where the pace slows and the vibes mellow just enough for meaningful conversation. Our special New Year’s cocktail collection will be in full swing alongside the classics, so you can sip something uniquely festive as you soak in the ambiance. 
 
🎥 The Grown-Up Rooms: Mini Cinema, Chill Vibes 
For those who want a quieter corner, we’re turning our grown-up rooms into a snug mini movie theatre. Think clusters of comfy chairs, cloth-draped tables, soft lighting — the kind of space that feels like a private living room, but better. We’ll be screening classic films to help you wind down, popcorn on hand (of course), and our cocktails and drinks will be served via table service so you don’t even have to get up. No booking needed — just wander in, take a seat, and settle in. 
 
🤝 Welcome & Community Spirit 
Our New Year’s Eve isn’t just a party, it’s a gathering of our community. Whether you’re a Fellow, a friend of Oddfellows, or new to the venue, you’re invited. The door’s open, the welcome is warm, and the night is yours to shape. 
 
🎉 What Makes This Night Special 
 
Open-house energy: No ticket barrier, no strict dress code — just come as you are 
Inclusive spaces: Dance-floor energy, cosy nooks, and everything in between 
Festive, creative drinks: Sip on handcrafted cocktails that feel like they were made just for the occasion 
Comfort + magic: Soft lighting, comfy chairs, and the gentle buzz of laughter and conversation 
 
We can’t wait to share this New Year’s Eve with you at Oddfellows Chester. Let’s celebrate the end of one year and the beginning of another; together, in style, with heart, and with a cheeky wink to the spirit that makes our house feel like home. 
 
See you there — and here’s to a wonderful 2026!
