Early birds Millennium Point launch Christmas

Award-winning conference and events venue Millennium Point has unveiled its plans for the festive period which include corporate party packages, public events and more.

Starting in November, the landmark venue in the Eastside of Birmingham city centre will be transformed into a festive wonderland with the return of its giant Christmas tree adorned with 23,000 energy-saving LED lights and accompanied by two large nutcrackers.

The tree is believed to be the largest in-door tree in the city standing at 39ft tall in the centre of the building 's glass atrium. In addition to the tree, the venue has hinted at other show pieces to delight visitors including a singing reindeer. The outside will be illuminated with stars and icicles.

Millennium Point has also announced its corporate exclusive and shared party packages for 2022 and a return of two popular events for the holiday season with a festive silent disco and a special screening of a Christmas favourite film in partnership with The Wine and Events Company.

The Silent Disco will feature three DJs and an assortment of genres from current chart toppers, RnB, and Hip Hop to Old Skool, Rock, Indie and Power Ballads alongside all of the Christmas classics.

The second event marks the return of longstanding partners The Wine and Events Company, who will host a festive film in the giant screen auditorium with four themed drinks and movie trivia.

A public vote online and on social media to vote for what film people would like to see on the big screen has been launched. The results will be announced with tickets going on sale in August.

Commercial director Rebecca Delmore said: “We 're very excited about our Christmas plans for this year. We 've taken all of what our customers and visitors have enjoyed over the past few years and built upon it to bring what is set to be the best Christmas yet in our landmark venue.

“It 's never too early for corporates to start thinking about Christmas, and we wanted to give the public something to look forward to in Birmingham 's Eastside during the winter. ”
