For our party on Saturday Night we have a Viking theme, so you are welcome to join us in fancy dress!
Location & Itinerary
We will have party nights on both Friday and Saturday evenings at our hotel.
When it comes to the Saturday party theme we have decided to go with all things Viking (hopefully we won’t get 100 long boats turning up or we could have a mooring problem!). This is a very broad ranging theme and should therefore give you plenty of scope to choose from. Spicers have proven time and time again to be brilliant at thinking outside the box so we look forward to seeing your creations, whether they be home made or bought. We know you will all look FABULOUS and remember fancy dress is optional but you do need to wear something!
We have a huge selection of optional activities for you to take part in across the weekend, many of them are included, and some are at an additional cost, but some are limited in numbers. You can book any of these now on the Spice Social app or website.

Travel & Stay
Your Accommodation
Based at the Radisson Hotel York right in the very heart of York this is the perfect base for our weekend. Accommodation is in Twin, Double or Sole Occupancy Doubles with a 2 or 3 night option.
Rooms are en-suite with tea and coffee making facilities, iron and ironing-board, air-conditioning, safe, and free wi-fi.
Access to the accommodation is available from 3pm but you can arrive in the city anytime on Friday so why not look at joining us for lunch and the treasure hunt. There are events available to book across the weekend. There will be a Spice coordinator ready to meet you on arrival with a big smile and warm welcome at the hotel from 12pm on Friday and you can leave your luggage with us while you head off into the city until your room is ready. Meet your roomies/coordinators/etc and then get ready for a party weekend. Join the treasure hunt on the Friday afternoon, but if that’s just too energetic grab a drink from the bar and chillout with the rest of us.
No dogs allowed.
York has great transport connections from the North, South, East and West with rail and road networks converging on the city.
The hotel offers secure car parking with space for up to 50 cars, on a first-come, first-served basis.
