Christmas Parties 2026 on The Original London Boat Party, SE1

We had a great party season in 2025 and if you would like details for 2026, click the “Quick Enquiry” button and we’ll be back to you once the new information is ready.

To see what we can do, below are last year’s party details.

Welcome to the ORIGINAL ‘London Boat Party’, one of the city’s most unique and enjoyable nights out! Our party is the ideal activity for corporate office and staff parties in London and provides unrivalled value for money. Eat, drink and catch-up on the office gossip as we cruise past the ever-changing illuminated London sights, before grabbing yourself a group selfie in front of Tower Bridge and dancing ‘til you drop to the sounds of a top Thames DJ. 

Each party boat is fully equipped, heated and maintained to the highest safety standards, guaranteeing a great party atmosphere. Most have at least two decks meaning you can dance all night or take a break and chill downstairs, suiting all ages and demeanours.

Booking for x25 or more people? We appreciate the role of the office party planner can be a testing one, meaning we’ll reward you with a ‘free organiser’s ticket’ for all your hard-work! We’re not just for Xmas! We operate this cruise every weekend throughout the year, and it proves highly popular with a long list of happy shipmates.

For those who want to keep partying – we can arrange free nightclub guest-list entrance too (subject to availability).
