New Years Eve Party

Guests are graciously welcomed from 6:00pm, where a festive selection of drinks awaits at the bar, inviting you to relax and begin the evening in true celebratory spirit. As the clock approaches 7:00pm, we gather within the majestic 15th-century Great Hall for a sumptuous New Years feast, dining beneath ancient beams that have witnessed centuries of joy, revelry, and renewal.

Throughout the evening, a traditional Highland piper will weave through the Castle, filling the halls with stirring melodies from 6:00 PM until midnight; when he will honour the turning of the year with a final, triumphant tune. During dinner, the atmosphere will be further enriched by a live pianist, whose elegant playing adds warmth and charm to every course.

As the feast draws to a close, the celebration moves into the 12th-century Great Hall, which transforms into a vibrant late-night venue complete with a fully stocked bar, a crackling log burner, and a huge 12th-century open fireplace radiating warmth through the room. A lively disco will carry the night forward, inviting guests to dance beneath the ancient stonework as we welcome the New Year in unforgettable style; embraced by the timeless grandeur of Appleby Castle.
