The most glitzy (and lively) Christmas party in Liverpool's calendar is fast approaching

As Christmas parties go the Carolyn Hughes PR charity Christmas Lunch in aid of Radio City’s Cash for Kids has become quite legendary in the festive calendar.

The glamorous lunch is set to take place at GUSTO, Albert Dock on Friday 1st December and is now in it’s 8th year.

The restaurant is set to be packed to the brim with some Liverpool’s most glamorous people including many of the city’s biggest business leaders and owners and celebrity supporters.

Previous celebrity guests have included:- Rebecca Ferguson, Danielle Lloyd, Alex Gerrard, Coleen Rooney, Jude Cisse, Philip Armstrong,Tony Burke, Lorraine McCulloch and Gillian Kearney and this year’s guest list is set to be just as glamorous.

The event starts at noon and the element of fun is top of the agenda, with a full line-up of entertainment and a sprinkling of surprises along the way. Previous years have included ‘Singing Policemen, a Mannequin Challenge, a Drag Artist, a George Michael tribute, photo mirrors, grotto’s and last year a Father Christmas and a very naughty ‘Elf on a Shelf’.

Guests will enjoy a drink on arrival, sumptuous 3 course Christmas lunch and an afternoon of fun and frolics.

All funds raised on the day will be to support Radio City’s Cash for Kids.

Carolyn Hughes, CHPR, said “The CHPR charity Christmas Lunch is always a great day and for many people it kicks off the start of Christmas. Whilst the focus is on having fun, we raise a substantial amount of money for Radio City’s Cash for Kids. Everyone comes along for a party and the atmosphere is unbelievable. I am really looking forward to this year’s event and I am sure the line-up will make sure the party goes with a bang. I am truly grateful to everyone who supports it year after year!”
