The Curling Club

A seasonal alpine pop-up bringing ice-free curling to London's South Bank and Vinegar Yard — The Curling Club operates from roughly October to March, turning temporary sites into apres-ski-themed party venues with synthetic curling sheets, cocktail bars, and DJ sets. The concept travels between locations, but the Southbank Centre site beneath Hungerford Bridge and the Vinegar Yard flagship near London Bridge are the established London homes.

The Curling Club Experience

Ice-free synthetic curling sheets are the centrepiece — an activity most guests have never tried, which is precisely why it works for group events. Curling coaches teach the basics, the competitive format creates natural team bonding, and the shared novelty generates the kind of stories that make an event memorable rather than just attended. The alpine theming, warm lighting, and rustic decor create a cosy winter atmosphere despite substantial capacity.

Seasonal Events at The Curling Club

Christmas parties are the core use case — the winter timing, festive atmosphere, and built-in activity align perfectly with the corporate calendar. Team-building events, birthday celebrations, and social gatherings also fill the rinks. Packages scale from pay-and-play options for small groups to full venue hire for up to 600 at the Vinegar Yard site, with food vendors and bars on site throughout.

London Locations

The Southbank Centre site places events between the Southbank Centre and the London Eye, with Waterloo and Embankment stations nearby. Vinegar Yard sits close to London Bridge station. Both locations carry cultural and transport credentials that make corporate bookings straightforward — this is activity-based entertainment in premium London settings, not an industrial estate with rented equipment.
