Board and partner dinners
A table that gives senior guests a shared activity without turning the evening into a programme.

VIP evenings for short guest lists
When twenty people matter more than two hundred. A single salon table, our most experienced hosts, bespoke felt and a pace that leaves room for the conversations the evening actually exists for.

VIP & premium
Fewer guests, more attention
VIP work is the opposite of a big floor. There is nowhere to hide, so the finish has to be right: the felt, the chip weight, the lighting on the table, the way the host handles someone who would rather watch than play.
We staff these evenings with senior hosts only, we rehearse the running order with you, and we keep the crew footprint small enough that guests never see the mechanics. The format stays exactly what it is everywhere else on this site — entertainment with symbolic chips, never gambling.
What is included
Everything in the booking
We do not publish prices. Every evening is quoted individually, based on the size of the event, the venue, the number of tables and the format you choose.
- Salon-grade table
- Deeper rail, heavier chips, bespoke felt in your colour if you want it.
- Senior host
- Our most experienced hosts only, briefed on names, roles and sensitivities.
- Discreet crew
- Setup before guests arrive, pack-down after they leave, uniform that matches your venue.
- Bespoke finishing
- Custom chip faces, printed table cards, a monogrammed cut card — produced to order.
- Concierge coordination
- We liaise directly with your venue, caterer and event manager so you do not have to.

Why this is a safe offline format
VIP & premium events runs entirely in person at your venue. Guests receive symbolic chips free of charge; those chips have no monetary value, cannot be purchased, cannot be exchanged for money, vouchers or goods, and are collected at the end of the night. There is no betting, no stake of any kind, no payout and no online component. Entry is restricted to adults aged 20+ and over, and our hosts state the format out loud before each table opens.
Client feedback
What organisers tell us
Feedback is published anonymously. We never use client logos or name organisations without written permission.
Everything was handled before we arrived and after we left. The host knew every name at the table within the first ten minutes.

Questions about this format
Do you offer higher stakes for VIP guests?
There are no stakes at all, at any level of event. Chips are symbolic props with no monetary value and no cash equivalent. That does not change for private or premium bookings.
Can you work inside a hotel suite?
Yes, subject to access and the venue's house rules. We survey the room first and supply the venue with a technical sheet.
How far ahead should we book?
Bespoke felt and custom chip faces need roughly three to four weeks. Standard finishes can often be arranged at shorter notice.
