We are pulling out all the stops so we are sure to add a touch of magic to your festivities.
Whether you are organising your Christmas Conference, your Christmas work ‘do, a festive night out with friends or getting the whole family together, there is something for everyone at Crowne Plaza Reading: Festive Lunches, Christmas Conferences, and our ever popular ‘Join a Party’ Nights.
Private Parties in the magnificent Buckingham Suite give you the opportunity to theme your Christmas Party as spectacularly as you wish, so you can create your own Winter Menu which you can tailor for your party - as well as a disco for up to 150 guests.

For a night of glamour and glitz, come along to our New Year’s Eve Gala Ball, with a 5-course Meal and if you fancy something less formal this New Year, join our New Year’s Eve Dinner in the brand new 2 AA Caprice Restaurant.
We look forward to adding some magic to your festivities at Crowne Plaza Reading.
