About This Event

BEFORE THE CHIMES is planned for 31 December 2026 at the Holroyd Arms in Guildford. This daytime New Year's Eve celebration offers an alternative to the typical late-night festivities, with party anthems playing throughout the day. The event is free to attend and welcomes all ages.

🚫🚕 Dreading the NYE taxi surge? Can't be fussed with the packed-out town centre? We’ve got you sorted! 🚕🚫

This New Year's Eve, do things your way at The Holroyd Arms . Join us for Before the Chimes 2026 – the ultimate daytime NYE celebration!

Let’s be honest: nobody wants to pay triple-fare for a rip-off taxi at 1 AM, and fighting your way to the bar in a sweaty town centre venue isn't for everyone. That’s why we’re throwing the perfect alternative.

Whether you’re looking for the ultimate pre-party launchpad before heading out for midnight, or you just want to celebrate early, skip the hustle and bustle, and be home in your slippers by 10 PM—this is the place to be.

✨ The Details:

When: 31st December 2026

Time: 2:00 PM - 9:00 PM

Tunes: Top party anthems playing all day 🎵

Entry: Absolutely FREE! 🎟️

Who: All ages welcome! Bring the whole crew 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦

Wrap up your celebrating by 9 PM and stroll home without the stress, or use us as your warm-up before the midnight madness. The choice is yours!

Grab a pint, secure your table early, and let’s toast to the new year on our own schedule. Cheers! 🍻🕰️
