School Proms at Bistro Live
The Ultimate Guide to an Unforgettable School Prom at Bistro Live 24/07/2025

Your students’ final dance deserves to be truly special - and Bistro Live makes it happen. As the Bistro Live website promises, Project Prom is “a red-carpet experience designed to make your leavers’ night unforgettable”. From the moment pupils arrive to the final dance of the night, Bistro Live thinks of everything: professional staff, state-of-the-art sound and lighting, and a party atmosphere that turns an ordinary hall into a show-stopping venue. For your staff and students, that means stress-free planning and non-stop fun.
What does our prom package include:
We offer an all-inclusive deal (from just £29.95pp) so you don’t have to chase dozens of vendors. That package features a red-carpet entrance and glamorous photo area for VIP arrivals, a customizable photo booth, a freshly-prepared 3-course dinner served on the night, and a live DJ and disco playing music tailored to your group. Our award-winning table service means no bar queues (drink bundles and flag ordering keep teens happy), and the venue is bathed in stunning LED mood lighting. Every prom also enjoys an illuminated dance floor for awards or crowning moments, and wheelchair access at our Leicester and Milton Keynes venues. In short, students get the full VIP treatment - dinner, dancing, and decor all under one roof.
All about our extras:
We can also customize any extras you can dream up. Options include a pre-prom drinks reception, an event photographer, personalised photo booth graphics, dedicated presentation screens and microphones for speeches, full theming and decor (think Hollywood glam, under-the-sea, or school colours), and even a donut wall or sweet buffet for late-night treats. Whatever fits your school’s style, our team will help bring it to life. (One recent “Glitz & Glamour” night even had a red carpet, a Bistro Live “Walk of Fame” and a chocolate fountain for students!)
Our venues:
Bistro Live’s three venues (Leicester, Nottingham, and Milton Keynes) are built for celebration. We’ve designed every space specifically for dancing, singing and cheering - not just an empty hall. Each venue has a dedicated dance floor, top-quality sound system, LED lightshows, and a playlist that keeps energy high all night. In fact, with live bands or DJs included, “you don’t have to worry about keeping the energy up - it’s already built in”. Our venues are all in city centres, making transportation easy - Leicester, Nottingham or MK both have good parking and public transport links. We even offer wheelchair access at Leicester and Milton Keynes, so every student can join the fun.
Making memories (and staying safe):
We know proms are about lasting memories. That’s why we include a glamorous photo area and photo booth - your students can capture every silly pose and smiling group shot. One teacher raved that Bistro Live was “the perfect venue”, praising the food and staff for making “the night one to remember”. Safety is also a priority. As Gavin Luhrs of Robert Smyth School noted, Bistro Live is “a safe place for a celebration after the hard work of A Levels”, thanks to our experienced event team and secure venues. You can relax knowing trained staff will manage the evening - and even join in the fun (one reviewer laughed that the Bistro team was “most definitely 5★” and happily dancing along with guests).
Plan & book with ease:
Our in-house event coordinators have helped countless schools - we’ll guide you through menu choices, timelines, awards ceremonies or any special touches you want. We’ve even got a planning checklist (availability, group size, inclusions, entertainment needs) so nothing falls through the cracks. The next steps are simple: complete our enquiry form, pick a date, and lock it in.
Dates fill up fast, so we encourage booking early to give your students “a night they’ll never forget”. When the big night comes, Bistro Live handles the details - you just sit back and watch your pupils shine on the dance floor.
