Crazy Bear Hotels Unveils Its Festive Calendar

Crazy Bear Hotels has revealed its characteristically eclectic and exciting programme of events for November and December 2024. Beloved for their eclectic, maximalist properties in Beaconsfield and Stadhampton, Crazy Bear look forward to welcoming the community with magical activities to ring in the festive season and a range of offers across premium drinking, dining and wellness.

Counting down the days

Celebrating the advent of Christmas in spectacular style, Crazy Bear Stadhampton is reprising its previously sold-out Christmas Cabaret Parties, with highly limited tickets remaining. Complete with a banquet of Thai and British food, evenings of sharp wit and bold performances will be hosted by Abi, Crazy Bear’s hostess with the mostess. Talented artists including Britain’s Got Talent’s Lifford Shillingford and Portia Emare will captivate audiences throughout the festive season.

On the 27th November, to accompany the switch-on of twinkling Christmas lights in the heart of Beaconsfield, Crazy Bear will reveal an animatronic polar bear to delight local residents and families. Following this, on the 15th of December, Crazy Bear Beaconsfield will welcome their local communities for carol services in the eccentric and cosy surroundings of each property.

Open for booking during the month of November, guests can take advantage of a Festive Afternoon Tea and Cocktail offering for the perfect, sumptuous afternoon in the glamorous environs of the Crazy Bear hotels. Available from the 20th November and throughout December, a festive three-course menu is available for booking for groups of any size.

Christmas Day and Boxing Day

On Christmas Day, a five-course set menu with all the trimmings will be served at both hotels, including gourmet dishes such as a Boswell Ash Goat Cheese Brule, Poached Lobster with celeriac, caviar and yuzu, Beef Wellington and free-range Woodland Roast Turkey. Festive feasting at Stadhampton will be accompanied by the uplifting tones of a live band.

These menus, finely crafted with locally-sourced ingredients, can be enjoyed in a number of private dining spaces at both properties. For the perfect, intimate Christmas in the English Countryside, guests can choose between the Library and Hunting Lodge at Beaconsfield or the Glasshouse, Log Cabin and Boardroom at Stadhampton. After the busy run-up to Christmas, Boxing Day Brunches will be served at both hotels.

New Year

Given its reputation for showstopping, indulgent parties, it is no surprise that New Year at Crazy Bear in Beaconsfield is set to ring in 2025 with a bang. Decadent tasting or sharing menus will be served at the English and Thai restaurants, with a VIP option of lobster rolls and canapes. Meanwhile at Stadhampton, guests will enjoy a Thai and English banquet and a glass of Champagne – all while being serenaded by a live band and enthralled by breath-taking aerial artists, a contortionist, and an incredible host. An exhilarating DJ set will have the crowd on their feet as the clock strikes midnight.

For those who partied the night away or those looking for the perfect conclusion to a bracing New Year’s Day walk, a sumptuous brunch will be on offer at both properties to start the new year on a bright note.
