Before the countdown and fireworks commence, we’ve got an evening of fine dining, fabulous cocktails, and top tunes from the years gone-by, to celebrate another trip around the sun. 

Our magnificent Great Hall always looks its best when dressed in twinkling lights and Christmas trees. A setting worthy of a special occasion, be greeted with arrival drinks on their own show-stopping tower and an array of homemade canapes, before taking your seats at shared tables, to a four course menu. Each dish is inspired by the greatest culinary hits of 2024, invented by our talented Head Chef Ollie and Executive Chef Nick. There will also be a cheese station to graze on throughout the evening.

Once the plates have been cleared, the dance floor is open for business.

We guarantee you’ll experience a truly unforgettable New Year’s Eve in Cornwall.

Nestled in the heart of Cornwall, discover a dreamy wedding venue that radiates elegance, tranquillity and romance.

From the grandeur of The Great Hall to our sun-drenched terrace and the intimate set-up in The Duchy for smaller gatherings, The Alverton is the perfect wedding venue in Cornwall. Join us on Saturday 1st February 2025, from 10am until 2pm, for our special Wedding Showcase.

Our Great Hall will be decorated in its wedding finest by Emily Rose, giving you the chance to envision your big day. Enjoy a complimentary glass of fizz on arrival, as we chat through your big day to-be and discuss how The Alverton team can bring your dream wedding to life. Explore the venue at your own pace, whilst listening to the beautiful melodies from wedding pianist Roger Miners.

With room for up to 140 guests, whether it’s an intimate gathering or a grand celebration, surround yourselves with your nearest and dearest on your special day.

Join us for the greatest show on earth.

Join us for our murder mystery in Cornwall. On Saturday 22nd February, step through the grand oak doors of The Great Hall, into the raunch of 1930s Paris, for a night of glamour, intrigue, and suspense. 

You’re invited to rub shoulders with the Bohemians and aristocrats at the infamous Moulin Rouge. The greatest show on earth is about to take place, an electrifying affair for fresh eyes, but nothing out of the ordinary for the seasoned cabaret performers. That is until, an astonishing crime is committed under everyone’s noses, and a thrilling show turns into something far more sinister.

Pay close attention as the evening unfolds, and be careful not to get swept up in the charm and razzle dazzle, as everyone has a motive for keeping you on their side. Whilst you dine on our four-course, French-inspired menu, listen out for clues between courses, interrogate the suspects, and try to identify the killer in the room. 

Appearances are everything at the Moulin Rouge, so we’d like you to dress to impress. Turn heads in burlesque, feather-lined corsets, shimmy your way to your seat in glitzy flapper dresses, or suit up for the occasion with your best tailcoat and top hat. Don’t be fooled by anyone’s exterior, it could all just be a cover up act. 

Things are hotting up at our hotel on the hill as we welcome five Cornish chefs to Truro to showcase their culinary skills and represent their corner of the county at our Great Coast-to-Coast Charity Dinner. On 27th February 2025, take your seat in The Great Hall for a gourmet extravaganza and help us raise money for our beloved industry charity, Hospitality Action. 

The Alverton kitchen will be bursting at the seams with some of Cornwall’s most talented chefs for this friendly evening of exceptional food and wines, prepared by some of the most gifted chefs from our shores.

Raising money for Hospitality Action

All of the proceeds from our charity dinner will be donated to Hospitality Action, an organisation close to our hearts, that offers support to people who work, or have previously worked in the hospitality sector, helping them back on their feet during challenging times – whether that’s poor physical or mental health issues, financial troubles, battles with addiction or difficulties at home.

On 5th March 2025, our Head Chef Ollie Wyatt will be hosting an intimate tasting evening at The Alverton. The evening will be a celebration of Truro and will highlight the very best seafood, grass-fed meats and harvest from our ‘Great Little City’.

Falling on St Piran’s Day, what better place to celebrate the patron saint of Cornwall from than our oasis in the capital city. Arrive at 7pm for a 7.30pm sit down, then indulge in a five course tasting menu, and raise a glass to St Piran with us.

Tickets are £60 per person. This includes a five course tasting menu, that has heavy influences of traditional Cornish recipes with a modern Alverton twist.

Head Chef Ollie has used his knowledge and experience of Cornwall’s incredible food and drink offering to create a bespoke menu filled with expertly curated and distinctly Cornish dishes that will both excite and tantalise the taste buds.

Savour the flavours of local land and sea with duck prosciutto and salt-baked celeriac. Then taste native brill with potato terrine, followed by venison loin. Finish on a sweet note with “Kernow” apple cake, named after our gorgeous county.

On Friday 13th June, our chefs will be rolling out a lobster feast, with all the trimmings, cooked on our konro grill. Caught locally in the Cornish waters, tuck into our succulent lobster, served al fresco style on our outdoor terrace, overlooking The Alverton gardens.

Arrive in style to a flute full of freshly-poured bubbles to sip on as you take your seat on our sun-soaked terrace. Of course, Lobster on the Lawn wouldn’t be complete without the star of the show. Sourced from the pristine waters of Truro’s circling coastlines, from lobster pot to plate, savour the freshest seafood tasting experience of the summer. 

Our Head Chef, Ollie Wyatt, is expertly trained in preparing delights caught from our Cornish oceans, and this particular menu heroes the nation’s favourite crustacean – the lobster. Seen as decadent and luxurious, Ollie is stripping back the frills and serving a menu that focuses on the beauty of simplicity – with ingredients that enhance the already rich and sweet natural flavours of this meaty shellfish.

Tickets to our Lobster on the Lawn event are £50 per person. This includes our rustic lobster feast and an arrival glass of fizz. We have limited tickets for this exclusive event, with tables being available every 15 minutes from 5pm until 7pm. Please arrive at least 15 minutes before your booked time slot so that we can accommodate you.
