Christmas

The Dome at George Street is not only perhaps the best looking Christmas venue but it also smells like Christmas thanks to cinnamon and other festive smells throughout the Georgian building. The venue's famous festive décor sparkles once again from October 30, 2023 until January 7, 2024. Due to unprecedented demand this festive season the maximum table size is 8 in the Grill Room, 5 in the Club Room and 10 in the Georgian Tea Room. Sorry, you cannot book multiple tables.
