This festive season, Bubba Oasis transforms into an Alpine escape in the heart of Islington, offering a one-of-a-kind Après Ski Lodge experience across both our vibrant indoor venue and our heated rooftop terrace. Think cosy mountain vibes, winter cocktails, roaring fireplaces, Giant Christmas Trees, and all the chalet charm you’d expect from a ski holiday!

The Style & Theme:
Step into our Après Ski Lodge, where rustic alpine decor meets London cool. Faux fur throws, twinkling fairy lights, ski-themed props, and warm wood textures set the scene. Indoors, it's all about a Cosy Winter Lodge, while upstairs, the Après Ski Rooftop brings a more lively, festive buzz – complete with heaters, winter DJs, and Snowy Christmas Trees.

What Makes It Unique:
Dual Experience: Enjoy the best of both worlds – a snug, atmospheric lodge vibe downstairs and a high-energy winter terrace party up top.
Themed Food & Drink: Indulge in our seasonal menu of alpine-inspired bites and cocktails – from spiced mulled wine and Irish Coffee to gooey raclette sliders and truffle fries.

At Bubba Oasis Islington, we transport guests straight from the streets of London to the heart of the Alps with our immersive Après Ski Christmas experience – designed to be both visually stunning and emotionally uplifting.

Décor:
We go all-in on the alpine aesthetic – think cosy wooden lodge interiors, faux fur throws, snow-dusted pine trees, vintage ski gear, and warm, rustic textures. Every corner of the venue is styled to feel like a high-end chalet, creating that magical "off-the-slopes" feeling.

Lighting:
Our lighting transforms the space into a warm, festive glow – with soft amber tones, string lights, and candlelit tables to evoke that fireside feel. Outside on the rooftop, fairy lights and heated lamps create a magical contrast against the crisp winter air, keeping the vibe high and the chill low. Our Neon lights bring a party vibe for those late night events!

Music:
No Après Ski party is complete without the soundtrack – and ours is curated to build the perfect festive buzz. Expect a mix of uplifting house beats, Christmas classics with a twist, and live DJs spinning tracks that shift the atmosphere from après drinks to dancefloor energy as the night unfolds.

Overall Vibe:
We blend the relaxed charm of a mountain lodge with the vibrant energy of a London party, creating a festive space that’s both welcoming and electric. Whether you're sipping mulled wine under the stars or dancing in ski goggles at a themed party night, every detail is designed to make any celebration unforgettable.

At Bubba Oasis, we believe in celebrating the festive season consciously and responsibly – creating good times that are kind to the planet and supportive of our community.

Sustainable Décor: Our Après Ski theme features reusable props and decorations, including reclaimed wood, faux greenery, and energy-efficient LED lighting. No single-use plastic snow here!

Low-Waste Operations: We work to minimise waste across the venue, especially during high-volume periods like Christmas. This includes careful stock management, compostable serveware for events, and staff training on waste reduction.

Green Energy: Where possible, we aim to source our energy from renewable suppliers, helping to reduce our overall carbon footprint.

Digital-First Bookings & Menus: We encourage the use of digital menus, QR code ordering, and paperless communications to cut down on unnecessary printing.

Community Giveback: During the festive season, we look for ways to give back to the community – whether through charity partnerships, donation drives, or hosting events that support local causes.

Spiking Prevention: We are committed to guest safety, providing security for all of our Christmas Parties and maintaining enhanced vigilance in busy periods.

Safe Space Policy: We promote a respectful, inclusive environment where guests feel safe and supported. Our team is always on hand to help if anyone feels uncomfortable or unwell.
