As those in the know are well aware, Virgin Hotels’ signature color is red. This is a stroke of luck for anyone planning a personal or corporate holiday party, as this means that most of the decorating is complete when you book your event at Virgin Hotels Dallas. Although Dallas hasn’t experienced true autumn temperatures yet, when it comes to holiday party planning, now is the time to book an event– only a few choice dates remain at Virgin Hotels Dallas.
“Virgin Hotels Dallas has been the perfect venue for holiday parties since it opened,” says Jordan Fatheree, Virgin Hotel Dallas’ director of events. “It’s a lively aesthetic simply because of the fun brand that Virgin is, and with that famous Virgin Hotels red throughout the hotel, you already have a magical backdrop built in.”
Each holiday season, Virgin Hotels Dallas goes all out, filling every corner of the hotel with jaw dropping seasonal décor you’ll notice upon arrival, throughout the junction, and into the bar and pool areas and event spaces. Whether you are hosting a holiday party for six or 600, Virgin Hotels Dallas has you covered. For instance, the aptly named Giant ballroom is perfect for a party of several hundred, or you may want to book the Rushmore space for a casino night event a smaller gathering. Maybe this year’s gift to your friends is an intimate dinner party in one of the hotel’s private dining rooms. Whatever you dream up, Virgin Hotels Dallas can accommodate.
Virgin Hotels Dallas offers creative spaces, engaging environments, and inspirational teams that support and bring any vision to life, seamlessly. The hotel has more than 15,500 square feet of versatile indoor and outdoor spaces, so there is always a personalized fit. The hospitality and events team at Virgin Hotels Dallas collaborates closely with clients to create exclusive meetings and events, customizing even the tiniest of details to suit individual needs.
One of the most coveted spots for a holiday soiree at Virgin Hotels Dallas is the Manor space on the fourth-floor rooftop. It’s often requested because of its expansive outdoor terrace. The Manor pays homage to Richard Branson’s recording studio as a unique creative space with a curved wall of windows and wrap-around that perfectly frame Dallas skyline views. Hand-painted gold wall coverings, white lantern fixtures, and a slatted wood ceiling give the venue a luxe flare. Ask about the option to conjoin The Manor with The Pool Club for additional space. The Pool Club is a dynamic indoor-outdoor space complete with direct access to the skyline terrace, private water closets, and glass walls that slide open.
The hotel’s Giant + Foyer space is perfect for larger parties. This space features neutral tones and hardwood flooring and flows seamlessly between outdoor gardens and the ballroom. It is divisible from one to three sections to accommodate a variety of party sizes, and with built-in AV components, it is a great option for end-of-year corporate holiday parties.
When booking your party, be sure to ask about the Sr. Richard’s Flat, a suite that is converted each holiday season into St. Nick’s Suite Retreat. Filled with holiday décor floor to ceiling on the top of the 16th floor of the hotel, this holiday pop-up suite overlooks downtown Dallas and has become a popular choice for Dallas to ring in the holiday season. Enjoy light bites and handcrafted signature holiday cocktails while taking in the skyline views. This speakeasy-style suite can be reserved for an entire evening for a private event, and there are three reserved seatings open to the public on open evenings throughout the holidays.
And remember, at Virgin Hotels Dallas, the party doesn’t have to begin or end as the invitation states. When you book your event just before or after one of the hotel’s regular Marquee Events, such as drag brunches, trivia nights, and the skyline cinema series, there’s time to linger a bit more. And there is always live entertainment at the hotel bar. “It’s fun to see guests enjoy these events before or after their event, mixing and mingling with other guests,” Fatheree says. “Virgin Hotels Dallas can also provide special room rates to party guests so that everyone can enjoy the hotel longer and stay overnight.”
From decorations, sourcing entertainment, audio/visual set up, and an over-the-top holiday menu from an in-house culinary team, bar service, and staffing, everything you need to pull off your holiday event without a hitch is covered at Virgin Hotels Dallas. And if you don’t see exactly what you need, the Virgin Hotels Dallas events team can easily create something special for you off the menu. Valet parking is available, and because the Virgin Hotels Dallas is conveniently located within the Dallas Design District, guests don’t have to wind their way through downtown Dallas to reach the party.
