Christmas Parties in Norwich: Do Something Different This Year

Planning the office Christmas party usually starts with the same question:

Where should we go this year?

A restaurant? Drinks? A shared party night? The same venue as last year?

If your team is looking for a Christmas party in Norwich that feels a little more memorable, City Greens Golf offers something different.

Located in Norwich city centre, City Greens combines private TrackMan golf rooms with drinks, food, friendly competition and a relaxed lounge environment.

And importantly, you do not need to be a golfer to enjoy it.

Whether your team contains serious golfers, complete beginners or people who simply want a drink and a laugh with their colleagues, the evening can be built around you.

A Different Kind of Christmas Party in Norwich

The traditional work Christmas party often revolves around sitting down for dinner and then heading to a bar.

There is nothing wrong with that.

But sometimes it is better to have something to actually do together.

At City Greens, your team can split into groups, take on simple TrackMan challenges, compete on live leaderboards, eat, drink and move between the golf rooms and social spaces.

Instead of everyone spending the evening sitting beside the same two colleagues, the format naturally gets people mixing.

The result is part Christmas party, part team competition and part night out.

What Does a City Greens Christmas Party Look Like?

Every company can build its evening differently.

A typical Christmas party might look something like this:

5:30pm — Arrive

Your team arrives at City Greens in Norwich city centre.

Add a welcome drink, sparkling reception or signature cocktail and, if you choose one of our personalised options, your company branding can already be waiting on the screens.

5:45pm — Competition begins

Split into teams and start with simple golf challenges.

You do not need a handicap.

You do not even need to have played golf before.

The aim is to create something fun, competitive and easy for everyone to get involved with.

6:30pm — Food and drinks

Add nibbles, snacks, sharing tapas or pizza while the competition continues.

Companies can also set up a prepaid bar tab so employees can order drinks without someone having to pay each time.

7:15pm — The final challenge

One last chance to move up the leaderboard.

7:30pm — Winners announced

Add prizes, City Greens vouchers or even a personalised winner's trophy.

Afterwards?

Carry on at City Greens or head into Norwich for dinner or drinks.

We can also help organise a restaurant or drinks reservation after your golf.

Turn It Into Your Own Company Christmas Open

For companies wanting something a little more personalised, we can turn the event into your own company tournament.

Imagine arriving to:

THE CHRISTMAS OPEN 2026

Your event can include:

• Company branding
• Personalised welcome screens
• Bespoke challenges
• Team competitions
• Live leaderboards
• Competition prizes
• Winner's trophy
• Event photography
• Branded social media content

It takes what could have been a simple team night out and turns it into an event that feels specifically designed for your company.

Do You Need to Be Good at Golf?

Absolutely not.

In many ways, having a mixture of golfers and complete beginners can make the evening more entertaining.

TrackMan can be used for traditional golf, but it can also run challenges and games that are much easier for beginners to enjoy.

City Greens has private simulator rooms, so there is no driving-range feeling of standing in front of strangers waiting for someone to watch your swing.

Your room is your group's space.

Clubs are available too, so nobody needs to arrive carrying golf equipment through Norwich before the Christmas party.

Christmas Parties for Smaller Companies

City Greens is particularly well suited to small and medium-sized company Christmas parties.

A team of 8 or 12 people can sometimes feel lost at a huge Christmas party venue.

At City Greens, that same group can take over private TrackMan rooms and have an experience built around them.

Our Christmas Golf Experiences are available for groups of up to 24, with larger groups rotating between golf, drinks, food and social time.

For groups above 12, we recommend considering three hours so everyone gets plenty of time to play and socialise.

How Much Does a Christmas Party at City Greens Cost?

Our two-hour Christmas Golf Experiences start from £28 per person, depending on group size.

You can then build the party around your budget.

Options include:

Drinks
Welcome drinks, sparkling receptions, signature cocktails, drinks packages and prepaid bar tabs.

Food
Nibbles, premium snacks, tapas-style sharing food and pizza.

Extra Time
Add a third hour if you want a longer event.

Personalisation
Add company branding or turn the evening into your own Christmas Open.

Extras
Trophies, upgraded prizes, photography and branded event videos are also available.

You do not have to purchase a fixed package containing things you do not want.

Start with the golf and build the evening that suits your team.

Golf First, Dinner Afterwards

You do not necessarily have to choose between an activity and the traditional Christmas meal.

One of our favourite ways to use City Greens is:

Golf → Drinks → Awards → Dinner in Norwich

Start the evening with two hours at City Greens, then move on to a restaurant afterwards.

It gives everyone an activity to enjoy together before sitting down for dinner.

If you tell us what kind of evening you are planning, we can also help coordinate the timings and restaurant reservation.
