About this Event
'Welcome to the Santaverse' is the Christmas party you always need needed but didn't know you wanted.

Bring ugly jumpers, full hearts and empty stockings for what will surely be the ha-ha-ha-happiest night of the year.
Tickets: Donate What You Can Afford
All donations will go to the Magpie Project - a charity that provides a safe and fun place for mums and under-fives suffering in temporary and insecure accommodation.
At a time of year when so many of us will be surrounded by our families in warm homes stuffed with love and food, it is easy to forget that is not the case for far too many.
