FESTIVE PARTIES & GIFTS
PERFECT MATCH It’s been a seminal few months for The U’s, with our local club buying back The Abbey grounds in September, and flying high in League One. Cambridge United has also added a luxurious new hospitality experience to its offering, which makes for a fantastic day out, corporate shindig or special gift for the footie fanatic in your life. Team Edition was lucky enough to experience the swish new Layrd Design Lounge on the day of the blistering match against Burton Albion, which saw The U’s triumph over their opponents in a goal-packed thriller that ended 4-3 to the Yellow and Black Army. Recently renovated, the Layrd Design Lounge gives your day at the football a sumptuous spin, with prosecco on arrival, a tasty three-course meal, snacks and drinks at halftime – and executive seating that gives a fantastic view of the action. A must for loyal fans of the club and newbies alike, the VIP treatment includes interviews with players and a ringside seat to the post-game man-of-the-match presentation, plus a complimentary programme and team sheet. The food is excellent, the setting luxurious and the staff truly dedicated to giving you a special experience, showing the club – and the beautiful game – off in its best light. Highly recommended for the ultimate match day experience! Priced at £90 per adult.
ON THE MAP The shop at Kettle’s Yard has unveiled an exciting new selection of products just in time for the holiday season. Artist Rory Hutton has teamed up with the museum to produce a range of silk scarves, gift wraps and notecards inspired by the furniture and objects in Kettle’s Yard house, while textile artist Ekta Kaul has created a stylish embroidery kit featuring a map of Cambridge that highlights its iconic architecture and parks. A series of prints are also available, featuring works by Ben Nicholson, William Scott and David Jones. KETTLE’S YARD
