A child’s christening is a very important event, so it is vital that you create a real sense of occasion for the celebration, and what better way than to use the
opulent Empress Ballroom venue to do so? Whether for the after-party or as the venue for a non-religious naming ceremony, the ballroom of Mexborough’s
iconic Empress Building is an ideal venue, especially for larger parties.
With expansive space created by the elegant, imposing high ceiling, and surrounded by photogenic lavish décor that has been saved from the building’s
1920s origins and brought back to life, the Empress Ballroom is guaranteed to give you fabulous memories of your child’s special day
