Signed, Sealed, Delivered - Santa’s Calling! A Motown Christmas Party Night
Kick off the Christmas season in true soul style with an unforgettable Motown Christmas tribute night at the Inn on the Lake in Gravesend, Kent.
From the very first note, you’ll be dancing “like there’s no mountain high enough” to keep you off the floor, singing along to timeless classics that still “stop in the name of love” and make you believe, without question, that “you really got a hold on me.”
Our live Motown tribute performance brings the unmistakable sound of Detroit’s golden era straight to your Christmas party – where the harmonies sparkle, the basslines bounce and the lyrics feel as good now as they did when “baby love” ruled the charts.

It’s ideal for office parties, group nights out, or anyone looking for uplifting live music in Kent and brilliant ideas for a birthday or hen party during the festive season.
