3 The Curling Club, Southbank
Curling is a fun festive thing to do with family or friends, whether you're good at it, or just kind of average. Southbank Centre's curling club comes without the need for ice or specialist footwear as stones glide down a specially made sheet, instead of ice. It comes as part of the venue's Winter Festival, so head off for some food and drink, or a browse through the Christmas Market after your game. Also try your hand at Curling in Twickenham and King's Cross.
Date: Until January 3, 2023
Time: 11am-11pm
Tickets: From £24 pp
Address: Southbank Centre, Belvedere Road SE1 8XX

4 Sunday Roast at Laurel's On The Roof, Shoreditch
Laurel's On The Roof, found perched on the top of the Mondrian Shoreditch hotel, has just started up a Sunday roast lunch. Keeping true to the venue's 70s Cali vibes, a traditional British roast (with traditional British puds) follows on from Californian-inspired starters of the likes of Malibu shrimp cocktails and crunchy tortillas. All on a rooftop terrace setting that comes with snuggly blankets and an open fire.
Service hours: 12.30pm to 3pm
Price: £35 for 2 courses, £43 for 3 courses
Address: 45 Curtain Road, EC2A 3PT

5 Christmas Rooftop Cinema Pop-up, Marylebone
Dine on a suburb Mediterranean-inspired dinner at Kitchen at Holmes, before making your way up to the restaurant's rooftop terrace that has been transformed into a cosy outdoor cinema, screening classic Christmas flicks. Enjoy while eating gourmet popcorn and with a whiskey cocktail in hand warming you up.
Date: November 17- December 16
Tickets: £70
Address: Kitchen at Holmes, 108 Baker Street, W1U 6LJ
