MOROCCAN FIRE NIGHTS - BRAND NEW FOR 2026
Our brand new immersive party; ‘Moroccan Fire Nights’ comes to The NEC this Christmas. Birmingham’s flagship Christmas party venue rises from the Moroccan desert to meet the intoxicating, vibrant land of Marrakesh… And of course, you’ll be treated to brand new incredible cirque entertainment throughout the evening… Read More MOROCCAN FIRE NIGHTS – A STARLIT JOURNEY THROUGH MARRAKESH Having left the cold winter’s night behind, silhouettes of minarets and giant archways rise over the Red City as you make your way through the bustling souk. Your senses instantly warm, drawing endless energy from the townsfolk vying for your attention to sell their wares. As you pass, they offer delicious hot and cold canapés and beckon you further towards one of four bars stocked with ice cold beers, fine wines and crisp spirits. The Cocktail bar, framed by rich fabrics and bejewelled in candlelight, tempts you closer to mixologists offering you colourful cocktails created to order. As the music levels rise, so do the exotic characters as they use their lithe bodies to push the boundaries of possibility in mind-blowing spectacles of skill, distortion and contortion! You are beckoned to continue your journey into the main room and as you take your seats, the lights dim and the ultimate party experience begins. Performers fly, spin and twist as you enjoy a succulent three-course dinner, fine wine and good company. As the last spoonful of dessert is devoured, the lights cut to an explosion of light and sound that marks the beginning of a dazzling finale. As the epic stage show comes to a climatic end, the power passes to the DJ, and the dance floor passes to you! An uplifting blend of classic party tunes and modern-day hits instantly lure you onto the floor to begin dancing the night away. Elsewhere in the building a raft of after dinner entertainment has appeared to take your party experience into the early hours. Casino tables open and the indoor fairground rides begin to whizz and whir. While some take coffee and chocolates in a quieter area, the dance floor beckons for those disco bunnies with boundless energy and whose night is still young! And don’t forget to sample a midnight breakfast roll! As the evening draws to an unwelcome end, memories of a fun filled night remain as you reflect on a truly spectacular party
