Castle Club Private Party

Skyfall New Year's Eve

Thursday 31 December 2026 — Château de Houetteville

A few invitations open to non-members, on recommendation or by direct application.

Some nights pass through the years; others go down in history.

To celebrate the turn of the year, the Castle Club is preparing to bring to life the greatest party in its history.

An hour and a half from Paris, this extraordinary château, kept away from prying eyes for generations, will open its doors to 300 guests for an exceptional night.

Inspired by the world of Skyfall, this new edition of New Year's Eve will take over both floors of this remarkable house, building up to a grand show at midnight.

After a first edition that became memorable, with a helicopter arrival, a Mongolian camel and fireworks, the Castle Club intends to push the limits of the extraordinary even further this year.

The house

The Château de Houetteville

For its New Year's Eve, the Castle Club will spend the night of 31 December in a private château, open for one night only: the Château de Houetteville. We will be welcomed by one of the members of the Cercle 55.

With its singular architecture and the air of a Scottish manor, the Château de Houetteville seems to have stepped straight out of the world of Skyfall. It is here that the Castle Club's most emblematic gathering will take place.
