Black-tie Christmas cocktail party held at Slug And Lettuce in Nottingham.
Slug And Lettuce in Nottingham is hosting a black-tie Christmas cocktail party on Thursday 3 December, so if you've been looking for a reason to dust off the formal wear before the holidays properly kick in, this is it. It's a black-tie affair, which means the dress code is the main thing to keep in mind: tuxedos and evening gowns are the order of the day, rather than the usual casual night out in the city.
The evening is built around Christmas cocktails, and since it's a black-tie night, the whole thing leans into that more dressed-up side of the season. It's a cocktail party in the truest sense—cocktails and company—rather than a sit-down meal or a full-blown dinner party, so you can spend the night moving around the room and catching up with people. If you're planning to go, it's worth getting your group together early, as these kinds of themed nights tend to work best when you've got a full table of friends to dive into.
