A hidden factory,

dressed for Christmas

The Compound is a former textile factory tucked away behind an unmarked door on Water Street, in the heart of Birmingham’s Jewellery Quarter. Inside, you’ll find a speakeasy-style Christmas, with 35-foot ceilings, exposed steel and timber, a glass-walled winter garden, an island bar kitchen, an underground cinema and an art studio. This December we’re dressing it for Christmas and opening the doors for shared nights. Bring a team of ten or forty and share the room with a handful of other companies. You get the buzz of a full house without having to fill it yourself. A Christmas party that feels a little more special than the usual festive night out.

Everything Included

Nothing to organise. You bring the team, we’ll take care of the rest.

Canapés & Festive Dishes

Five canapés on arrival, then three hot festive dishes and a dessert through the evening.

Drinks Included

A welcome drink and three more each. Go Premium for £20 a head more.

Live DJ & Saxophonist

A live DJ all night, with a saxophonist woven through the evening.

4pm Until 11pm

A long, relaxed evening in a room dressed for Christmas.

Shared or Bespoke

Book places on a shared night, or ask us about a date and package of your own.

Every Guest Looked After

Dietary needs and allergies planned with you before the night.

Prepared By

The Cornerstone Kitchen

This December we’re bringing Christmas to The Compound. Festive cocktails at the bar, canapés doing the rounds and a saxophonist playing as the room fills up.

We take care of the food, the drinks and the music, so all your team has to do is enjoy the night.

Luxury Christmas restaurant with chefs preparing food in an open kitchen, surrounded by festive Christmas decorations and warm ambient lighting.
