Christmas 2026 | From 4 November
London’s favourite alpine-themed winter hangout is back. The Curling Club returns for the 2026/27 season at Vinegar Yard, London Bridge from 4 November, and at Chelsea Winter Illuminations from 25 November. Expect ice-free curling, festive food and drinks, DJs and plenty of après-ski atmosphere.
Here are five reasons to give it a go.
1. Curling without the ice
No skates, no slipping. The Curling Club’s ice-free lanes mean anyone can pick up a stone and have a go, whatever their age or ability. It’s easy to learn but surprisingly competitive once you get going.
2. Catch the Olympic curling bug
After Team GB’s men won silver in curling at this year’s Winter Olympics, curling fever has swept the country. This is your chance to see what all the fuss is about and channel your inner Olympian.
3. Après-ski vibes in the city
You don’t need to head to the Alps for a proper après-ski night out. There are DJs, festive food and warming drinks, so it’s as much a party as a game.
4. Perfect for Christmas parties
Looking for an office party that’s a bit different? Competitive socialising keeps growing in popularity, and curling is ideal for team get-togethers, festive catch-ups with friends or a fun date.
5. Two great locations
Choose the buzzy street food and bar scene at Vinegar Yard next to London Bridge, or pair your game with the light trail at Chelsea Winter Illuminations. Pay & Play starts from just £19.50, and bookings are open now.
