We are delighted to offer you the opportunity to join us at one of our most popular events of the year, our Christmas Cracker!
This year we will be joined by the legendary Kevin Keegan OBE, former England rugby captain Will Carling OBE, along with 1985 World snooker finalists Steve Davis OBE and Dennis Taylor for what promises to be a fantastic afternoon of festive fun.
Hosted by the charismatic Scott Quinnell, the lunch will be held at the iconic Coal Exchange Hotel, Cardiff Bay on Friday 12th December 2025.
Kevin Keegan, OBE is regarded as one of the greatest English footballers of all time. His football journey as a player took him to his beloved Liverpool where he became an idol of The Kop. Keegan then moved to Hamburg in the summer of 1977 and was named European Footballer of The Year in both 1978 and 1979. He also went onto to become a hugely successful manager at Newcastle United, along with a brief spell managing England.
Will Carling, OBE won 72 caps for England between 1988-96 captaining his country an incredible 59 times. Under his captaincy, England won Five Nations Grand Slams in 1991, 1992 and 1995, and reached the 1991 Rugby World Cup final.
In 1985, nearly 20 million viewers were glued to their screens as Steve Davis, OBE and Dennis Taylor battled it out in a nail-biting World Snooker Championship final. What followed was pure drama: a final frame decider, one last black ball and a victory that etched Taylor’s name into snooker folklore. Steve and Dennis both join us to celebrate an incredible 40th year anniversary.
The festivities will commence at 1:30pm and will include live entertainment, a traditional three-course Christmas lunch, charitable raffle and auction. The dress code is smart casual.
Tables of 10 are available from £1,500+VAT. A quantity of individual covers on shared tables of 10 are also available from £150+VAT per person. We also have a limited number of Platinum tables available from £2,000+VAT. You will receive a selection of fine wine along with prime location seating for the main event.
Sponsorship opportunities are also available on request.
