A clandestine pop-up cocktail party with a 1920s speakeasy flavour, in a secret London venue entirely lit by candles.

Each event offers a one-off cocktail menu with special themes, plus live period jazz bands and vintage vinylism. Guests are encouraged to dress in 1920s outfits. Ticket holders get an email two days before revealing the location.

For the April cherry blossom festival (Sakura) we take our inspiration from 1920s Japan, when the nation's love of nature and tradition mingled with a surge in modernisation, Western fashion, Art Deco, jazz. Cocktails became all the rage and we'll be offering a list of Japanese-influenced drinks, while our dining menu comes courtesy of a guest chef with 18 years experience at the legendary Nobu restaurant.

To set the mood we'll be projecting Japanese gangster movies from the 1920s. Live jazz music music will come from the Shirt Tail Stompers. Japanese women of the era embraced the flapper look, known as "modan gaaru" ("modern girl”). To sort out your 1920s image, vintage styling team Lipstick & Curls are offering a 10% discount.
