G4C Sussex committee want to invite all young professionals in the built environment sector to our first ever Christmas ball!

Thursday 3 December 2026 | From 6:00pm

Rockwater, Hove

Join us for the G4C Sussex Christmas Ball, bringing together professionals from across the built environment to celebrate the end of another busy year.

Whether you work in construction, planning, architecture, contracting, engineering, surveying, development, or somewhere in between, this is an opportunity to get dressed up, enjoy a festive evening and catch up with familiar faces while meeting some new ones.

Expect good company, food, drinks, some music and a chance to put work to one side for the evening...

Key information

Dress code: Black tie / formal eveningwear

We want this to feel like a proper Christmas ball, so we'd love everyone to make an effort and dress for the occasion. Black tie, tuxedos and formal evening dresses are encouraged. If you don't have traditional black tie or formal eveningwear, simply wear your best clobber. The main thing is to get involved!

Food and drink

Your ticket includes:

Two drinks tokens, redeemable for beer, wine or soft drinks.

A buffet of different pizzas (Veggie, Vegan and GF options will be avaliable).

A bar will also be open throughout the evening for anyone wishing to purchase additional drinks.

If you have any dietary requirements or allergies, please let the G4C team know in advance so we can make the necessary arrangements.

Who should attend?

The event is open to anyone in the early stages of their career within the built environment sector in Sussex. We generally have those with up to 10 years' industry experience in mind, but this is a guide rather than a strict rule.

Students, graduates and those just starting out are welcome. Whether you're studying, working towards a qualification, have come into the industry later in life through a different route, are already professionally qualified, or are simply keen to meet others working in the sector, you're very welcome. You don't need to be a G4C member or have attended one of our events before.

G4C is about bringing people together, building connections and creating opportunities beyond the usual working day. The Christmas Ball is a chance to do exactly that, in a more festive setting.

A big thank you to our sponsors

A huge thank you to both sponsors for supporting the event and helping us bring together professionals from across the Sussex built environment community.

Their support helps make events like this possible, creating opportunities for people across the industry to connect, share experiences and build relationships beyond the workplace.

Please do take the opportunity to speak with our sponsors during the evening and show your appreciation for their support.
