The Christmas Social is a London Christmas party for founders, freelancers, entrepreneurs and independent professionals, taking place on Thursday 17 December 2026 from 7pm at ŌMÍ Lounge, 52 Wells Street, Fitzrovia, London W1T 3PR. Presented by SRTY through Connect & Celebrate, the standing celebration welcomes up to 100 guests, with tickets priced at £54 per person.
There is a particular moment towards the end of the year when everyone seems to be talking about their work Christmas party.
The date is in the diary. Someone is organising the drinks. The group chat has opinions about what to wear.
But when you work for yourself, that invitation does not always arrive.
You might have spent the year launching a business, looking after clients, growing a team or keeping everything moving on your own. There have been achievements worth celebrating, and probably a few difficult weeks that deserve acknowledging too.
At Serenity, we believe that deserves an evening of its own.
This December, we’re inviting you to The Christmas Social: a chance to step away from the work, dress up and celebrate alongside people who understand what goes into building something.

A Christmas celebration for people who work for themselves
Working independently or running your own business can give you the freedom to shape your days, choose your direction and build a business that feels like your own.
It can also mean reaching December without anyone else making plans to celebrate your contribution.
Perhaps you are a consultant who has spent the year embedded in other people’s teams. A freelancer juggling several clients. A founder whose business is still just you and one other person. Or a small-business owner who is usually responsible for making everyone else feel appreciated.
The Christmas Social makes room for you.
You do not need to organise a private event or bring an entire team. You can book a ticket for yourself and join a room of people with their own stories about the year.
And you do not need a dramatic success story to justify being there. Keeping going, finding your feet and making progress are worth celebrating too.
What is included in the £54 ticket?
Your Christmas Social ticket includes:
Entry to the standing Christmas party at ŌMÍ Lounge.
A welcome drink on arrival.
Festive canapés.
Music and entertainment.
Access to the private post-event Connect & Collaborate Directory if you opt in to being included.
A 10% saving on ŌMÍ Lounge venue hire fees for events taking place in 2027, with terms available on request.
Additional drinks are purchased separately.
The standing format gives you the freedom to move around and speak to different people throughout the evening. Canapés are included; this is not a seated dinner.

Come on your own or bring someone who has been part of your year
You are welcome to come alone.
That matters, because deciding to walk into a room without knowing anyone can be the hardest part of booking an event. The Christmas Social is designed for people to meet, so arriving independently fits naturally with the evening.
You can also bring your co-founder, partner, collaborator or the friend who has heard every update about your business.
They might be the person who helped you prepare for a pitch, talked through a difficult decision or reminded you how far you had come when you were too close to the work to see it.
Simply purchase an additional ticket for them.
Space for conversation without a formal networking programme
If you have been searching for Christmas events in London, The Christmas Social offers a relaxed way to meet other people building, scaling and growing.
There are no speed-networking rounds or forced introductions. Conversation can begin wherever it feels comfortable: what you do, how your year has been, or what you are looking forward to over Christmas.
You might meet a future collaborator. You might find someone whose experience makes you feel a little less alone in your own. Or you might simply enjoy an evening with good company.
There is no need to make every conversation productive. You have spent enough of the year doing that.
Continue the conversations with the Connect & Collaborate Directory
Meeting someone interesting is often the easy part. Remembering to exchange details before the evening ends can be another matter.
After The Christmas Social, participating guests will receive access to the private Connect & Collaborate Directory, making it easier to reconnect and keep conversations going.
Participation is optional and selected during registration. You choose the information you submit, which can include your name, business, what you do, website and social links.
Access is reciprocal: guests who opt in to being listed receive access; guests who opt out remain outside the directory and do not receive access.
It gives you a practical way to follow up, while leaving the choice about sharing your details with you.
Where is The Christmas Social taking place?
The evening takes place at ŌMÍ Lounge, 52 Wells Street, Fitzrovia, London W1T 3PR.
The central London venue provides the setting for an evening of festive food, conversation, music and celebration. If you are checking directions or arranging to meet someone beforehand, use the full Wells Street address.
Because this is a standing event, contact the organisers before booking if you need seating, step-free access or other arrangements. Dietary requirements should also be checked in advance so you can make an informed booking.
Make room to celebrate your own year
It is easy to move straight from finishing one project to planning the next.
Before December becomes another list of deadlines, give yourself something to look forward to. An evening where you can enjoy being a guest, catch up with someone you care about and meet people beyond your usual working circle.
