There’s always an excuse for a party somewhere in London and this Saturday’s FA Cup final is another reason meet up with friends and make a day of the occasion.

Stoke City will take on rivals Manchester City in what will be their first ever FA Cup Final. The underdogs beat Bolton Wanderers 5-0 in the semi-final and are preparing to give another thrashing when they meet favourites Manchester City in the finale of football’s oldest cup competition.

However, with street parties firmly behind us, celebrations can return to being all the more glamorous affairs.

For football fans, The May Fair Hotel is offering the ultimate five-star cup final package.

With up to 200 friends, you can host a private screening of the game in one of the capital’s largest private screening rooms, The May Fair Theatre. Watch your game through high-definition projection systems, THX quality sound, and integrated in-seat audience response system, with a beer or champagne and plenty of popcorn.

Following the game, with perhaps a smaller number of guests, you could book a room at the hotel’s Nobu Private Dining Room or go for drinks at The May Fair Hotel Bar, recently voted Best Hotel Bar in London.

Whoever said watching football couldn’t be a luxurious affair?

The package costs £5,000 and includes exclusive use of the May Fair Theatre, 400 beers, and popcorn.
