Southend venue gears up for glamorous All-Inclusive New Year’s Eve party!

The team at Southend’s Holiday Inn are preparing for an All-Inclusive New Year’s Eve party in the hotel’s beautiful Laker Suite, promising an evening of elegance, energy and celebration.

Guests can look forward to a fully inclusive package that includes free-flowing drinks and a generous three-course buffet with global flavours. The hotel has described the evening as a “proper end-of-year celebration”, with a DJ keeping the dance floor alive until around 1am and a memorable midnight countdown to welcome in 2026.

Attendees at last year’s party praised the evening, saying the service and food were “above expectations”, and organisers say this year’s menu looks equally tempting. The buffet will include:

• A selection of tasty starters and fresh salads
• Mains such as teriyaki salmon, butter chicken masala, braised beef bourguignon and jerk chicken
• Vegetarian and vegan options throughout
• Classic desserts including sticky toffee pudding, chocolate brownie and Christmas pudding

Tickets must be pre-booked in advance. Ticket enquiries can be made by email at events@hisouthend.com or by phone on 01702 209086.
