The 4-star Limerick Strand Hotel has officially launched its highly anticipated Christmas 2026 programme in spectacular festive fashion.
With excitement already building, the hotel unveiled a festive calendar packed with exceptional dining experiences, immersive entertainment and seasonal celebrations, with its renowned Party Nights once again taking pride of place.
Located in the heart of Limerick city, this iconic hotel is inviting guests to make Christmas 2026 truly unforgettable in a vibrant atmosphere filled with festive cheer.
Brand New for 2026, they are thrilled to launch their Merry & Bright Christmas Party Nights, debuting this year on 28 November and 18 December. Priced at only €69 per person, these new festive celebrations at the Limerick Strand Hotel aim to provide a fun and accessible holiday experience and are expected to be some of the most unforgettable nights in town this Christmas.
Designed for groups seeking a vibrant, energetic night out, the Merry & Bright Party Nights deliver the festive magic, entertainment, and atmosphere guests have come to expect from the Limerick Strand Hotel, while introducing a fresh format for 2026. Guests are welcomed with mulled wine before enjoying a seasonal buffet crafted by Executive Chef Patrick Anslow. Entertainment is once again provided by James Sexton and HIYA Events, featuring lively meet-and-greet karaoke with Santa, spot prizes, and interactive festive fun throughout the evening. The celebrations continue late into the night, with DJ Adam Sexton taking to the decks until 2 am to ensure guests enjoy an unforgettable festive experience. As a completely new offering for Christmas 2026, early booking is strongly advised, as demand is expected to be high for these exciting new party nights.
The hotel’s Legendary Christmas Party Nights are the highlight of the programme, priced at €92 per person and held on December 4th, 5th, and 12th. These nights are designed as the ultimate festive night out, with guests welcomed by a mulled-wine reception and entertained from the moment they arrive. The experience continues with all the Christmas fun brought directly to the table, creating an engaging, social atmosphere throughout the evening. A four-course festive menu is paired with the theatrical cloche dinner service, delivering a true ‘wow’ moment for guests. Each table features festive novelties, while the entertainment line-up, led by James Sexton and HIYA Events, ensures a lively, interactive evening. Guests can enjoy a meet-and-greet quiz with Santa, complete with spot prizes, before the energy builds with a Pure 80s band performance and a lively singalong with Mrs Claus. The night continues with a late bar and DJ Adam Sexton spinning party classics until 2 am, ensuring a full evening of celebration from start to finish.

“Our Christmas Party Nights are renowned for being some of the best nights in town and we are delighted to introduce our brand-new Merry & Bright Party Nights for 2026,” said Director of Sales & Marketing Maria O’Gorman Skelly. “These exciting new nights have been designed to offer guests a fun, high-energy festive experience at a fantastic price point of €69 per person. Alongside our legendary party nights, festive dining experiences and Christmas Residential Package, we’re proud to be open throughout the Christmas season for both residents and non-residents, offering something special for everyone to enjoy.”
At the heart of the Limerick Strand Hotel’s Christmas offering is a simple aim: to create an evening guests will remember long after the Christmas season is over. What makes the Strand experience distinctive is the level of interaction and entertainment woven throughout the night. Rather than simply enjoying a festive meal before the entertainment begins, guests become part of the experience, with everything from theatrical cloche service and festive table surprises to Santa, quizzes, spot prizes, live music, singalongs and late-night DJ entertainment. Set against the backdrop of the River Shannon, the hotel combines its festive atmosphere, hospitality and attention to detail to create a Christmas celebration that feels energetic, social and genuinely memorable.
