Planning a year-end party in Hanoi comes down to three things: a room big enough for the whole company, food that is easy to share at the table, and a programme fun enough that nobody leaves early. LOOP Central (10 Phạm Ngọc Thạch, Kim Liên) seats around 300 guests, has a stage with a large LED screen and puts on a show every night from 6 PM to 2 AM. This guide walks you through planning your 2026 Year End Party step by step, with reference prices from the October 2026 menu.

When is year-end party season in 2026 – 2027?
Lunar New Year (Tết) 2027 falls on Saturday 6 February 2027, so this year's season runs from mid-December 2026 to the end of January 2027. Friday and Saturday nights in that window are when most companies are looking for a venue.
If your dates are flexible, two options make booking easier: hold it early, in mid-December, as a party to close the year, or pick a weeknight, when LOOP still runs its own themed programme for that night.
Why a beer club for your company party?
Restaurant dinners tend to end with the meal, and bars rarely serve enough food for a whole team. A beer club sits in between: everyone sits down to eat and drink like a regular team dinner, then the DJ starts, the performers come on and the room turns into a party.
No need to hire entertainment: every night at LOOP has a DJ, an MC, singers, dancers and themed acts.
Long tables for each team: rows of tables face the stage, so departments can sit together.
Food made for sharing: grill platters, sashimi, hotpots and bar bites, easy to order per table.
No second venue: dinner, the show and dancing until late, all in one place.
Planning your Year End Party in 6 steps
Confirm headcount and budget: how many people are coming (partners too?), the budget per person, and any awards or lucky-draw prizes.
Pick the night: Friday (Special Event) or Saturday (Secret Show) for the liveliest crowd, early in the week for easier booking. See what each night offers in What's on tonight in Hanoi? LOOP's nightly show schedule.
Call to reserve: give the date, arrival time, number of guests and how you'd like the tables arranged on 0329 263 789. For large groups, calling is the quickest way to sort out seating and food.
Agree a set order per table: talk to LOOP in advance so the platters and hotpots arrive at every table together, rather than everyone ordering separately.
Keep the programme short: speeches, awards and the lucky draw work best early in the evening. If you need the stage or the screen, ask before you confirm.
Plan the ride home: book cars in advance or name a designated driver for each group.
Budgeting your party with the LOOP menu
Reference prices from the October 2026 menu (k = thousand VND), before VAT, service charge and holiday surcharge (if any). An example order for one table of 10:
Mixed grill platter (pork ribs, tiger prawns, Australian beef tenderloin, sausages, bread, fries) – 889k
Mixed sashimi (salmon, herring, octopus) – 589k
Chinese-style “numbing spicy” (mala) grill platter – 569k
Thai seafood hotpot – 799k
Crispy dried squid with fish sauce – 359k
Crispy salt-cured pork knuckle with mắc khén pepper – 339k
Roast pork belly salad with kumquat – 189k
3 three-litre Tiger beer towers – 1,650k (550k each)
1 cocktail jug – 550k
That comes to 5,933k, about 593k per person. A 30-person company booking three such tables would spend around 17.8 million VND before VAT and service. Prefer another beer? A 3-litre Hoegaarden tower is 650k, Budweiser 550k.
For the opening toast there is sparkling wine: Klups Moscato (1,090k), Bottega Gold Prosecco (1,690k) and Cantina Perla Moscato (1,890k). On a tighter budget, order a bottle of LOOP liquor per table (150k) in apricot (Mơ Tình), Tao Meo crab apple or salted plum (Xí Muội).
Bringing your own: corkage is 100k per litre of infused rice liquor, 300k per bottle of wine and 500k per bottle of spirits.
Need a company invoice: menu prices exclude VAT; mention it when you book and LOOP will explain what to do.
For non-drinkers: soft drinks 45k, watermelon, pineapple or passion fruit juice 79k, fresh lime 69k, still water 30k.
See every dish and drink on the Menu page.
Which night should you choose?
Based on the October 2026 schedule at LOOP Central, every night of the week has its own theme:
Monday to Thursday: easier to book for large groups. The nights are Hậu Duệ Mặt Trời (Monday), Điệu Đà (Tuesday, gifts for female guests), Tứ Nam Kinh Bắc (Wednesday) and Bảnh Bao (Thursday, gifts for male guests).
Friday – Special Event: a big new theme every week, great for teams who love costumes and a festival feel.
Saturday – Secret Show: a surprise performance show, ideal for parties that run late.
Sunday – Mộng Vũ Hoa: an option for teams that work through the week.
Themes and gifts can change from month to month; the December and January schedules will appear on the Events page as soon as they are announced.

Before the party
Bring ID: by law, alcohol cannot be sold to anyone under 18.
Never drink and drive: Vietnamese law bans driving with any alcohol in your system. Take a taxi or ride-hailing app, or ask someone who isn't drinking.
Food allergies: many dishes contain prawns, seafood, cheese or peanuts, so tell the staff in advance.
