Christmas has officially arrived at one of London's most spectacular vantage points, as the iconic Sky Garden on the 35th floor transforms into a sparkling winter oasis. This year, the venue is pulling out all the stops to become one of the capital's most glamorous destinations for festive celebrations.
A Sky-High Festive Feast
The culinary offerings are a major highlight of the seasonal transformation. At the Fenchurch Restaurant, Chef de Cuisine Kerth Gumbs presents a five-course festive tasting menu that creatively blends seasonal British produce with Caribbean influences. The menu features inventive dishes such as jerk salmon ceviche with yuzu ponzu, roasted halibut with oscietra caviar, and grilled venison with a curried sausage roll. This exclusive tasting experience starts from £125 per person, with optional wine and cocktail pairings available. For a more concise meal, a set menu is offered at £62 for two courses or £68 for three courses.
Up on the 36th floor, the Darwin Brasserie offers diners a choice between its standard à la carte menu and a dedicated festive two-course menu starting from £74.50. For weekend visitors looking to indulge, the three-course Festive Brunch is available for £84.50 per person.
Live Music and Champagne Celebrations
The festivities extend far beyond dining. The popular Sky Garden Festive Music Nights are back, featuring live performances from ALR Music and energetic DJ sets that promise a champagne-fuelled atmosphere high above the London skyline. The centrepiece of the celebrations is the Moët & Chandon Festive Bar, serving as an ultimate hideaway for toasting the season.
The bar's menu features winter-perfect cocktails, each finished with Moët & Chandon Impérial Brut and priced at £17.50. Standout creations include the Imperial Yuzu with ginger liqueur, the Champagne Mirage blending rum, tangerine and caramel, and the Starlight Serenade combining gin and apricot. These are perfectly complemented by a selection of festive small plates, sharing platters, and cheese boards.
Planning Your Festive Visit
Access to this winter spectacle is remarkably accessible. Tickets for the festive events start from just £16.50 and include a welcome glass of mulled wine or cider. This makes it an affordable option for experiencing one of London's most breathtaking Christmas settings.
With its combination of stunning views, gourmet dining, live entertainment, and exclusive champagne offerings, Sky Garden has firmly established itself as a premier destination for Christmas celebrations in the heart of the city.
