Business Networking Celebrates Christmas 2026

Looking to celebrate Christmas while networking with like-minded people in business? Pop this event in your diary.

The Creative Content Company team are really pleased to announce that we have been welcomed back to Bijou for the Business Networking Celebrates Christmas 2026. It was a really popular event last year and a lot of fun. We know a few people went public with what they wanted for Christmas and some of these Christmas wishes came true. So, who knows what Christmas wishes could come true this year?

If you work alone, are self-employed or fancy letting your hair down this Christmas, come and join us. Last year the last few of us returned home after a night on the tiles at gone midnight. Who knows where the Business Networking Celebrates Christmas 2026 could take us this year.

The Business Networking Celebrates Christmas 2026 takes place at Bijou on Friday 27th November. It starts at 3pm and will be downstairs in the bougie basement. Between 3pm and 3.30pm attendees will be able to purchase drinks from the bar and network informally. For 3.30pm we will hear from Ashlie, the new general manager. She will share what their space can offer you and your business.

This will be followed by 60 second elevator pitches from everyone. If possible, make your pitch as festive and Christmassy as possible. We then ask all attendees to share their Christmas wish for the festive season. This will be followed by more informal networking and popping of crackers.

While there is no dress code for our networking events, we do encourage Christmas jumpers or attire for the Business Networking Celebrates Christmas 2026. While the event officially ends at 5pm, you are welcome to stay on for drinks, dinner and a tour of the pubs and bars of Peterborough.

Here at Creative Content Company, we believe that people buy people. We have created Business Networking Celebrates events to build relationships and get to know people in business better. Why not attend this event to meet new people and start building some great relationships?

This event is free to attend. However, we do ask tickets are booked in advance as spaces are limited. Free parking is not available as this venue is in the city centre.

Bijou is kindly providing the space for free and giving our free crackers. Creative Content Company are organising, marketing and running this event for free. Photos and videos will be taken during the event and shared online. This is to promote the businesses running, hosting and attending the event.
