London Loves Dogs Cocktail Party

Step into another world and enjoy a cocktail with a twist at the London Loves Dogs Cocktail Paw-ty!

This special evening promises to be the highlight of your summer social calendar offering you (and your canine best friend) the chance to have a fabulous time and support a great cause which rescues dogs - all at one and the same time. Hop off at Temple tube and just a stone’s throw from the hustle and bustle of Fleet Street, tucked down an intricate maze of alleys and narrow cobbled streets, you will find the leafy oasis of calm that is the secret Rose Garden of Middle Temple. This magical place of medieval architecture has featured in many movies such as Pirates of the Caribbean and Harry Potter. A quick look around could certainly leave you spellbound – the magnificent Elizabethan Temple Hall, bedecked with Van Dyck-style paintings, was the regal setting of the first ever performance of Shakespeare's Twelfth Night in 1602.

As you sip your specially-mixed London Loves Dogs Cocktail and enjoy haute-cuisine hors d’oeuvres, the ridiculously talented, fresh and stylish JAZZ DYNAMOS will set the mood with their ultra-cool Rat Pack swing and Latino rhythms as well as 60’s and 70‘s dance classics which are sure to get everyone dancing. Their pedigree is impeccable, having performed for the British royal family and before A-list celebs like Tom Cruise, and Johnny Depp - the Albert Hall is among the many distinguished venues they play.

To keep you in the picture, photographer Lou Boileau, celebrated for his iconic work in the National Portrait Gallery will be present to capture the evening’s essence and, in support the charity, will even take your photo-portrait against the stately backdrop of Middle Temple.
If all this wasn’t enough, guests will be bidding on some fabulous exclusive artwork from Charles Billich and Celina Teague as well other highly desirable items like a relaxing spa day or a case of fine wines.
World Protection for Dogs and Cats in the Meat Trade is a London based charity which is dedicated to the plight of dogs and cats caught up in the meat trade in Asia. Some of the charity’s beloved rescued dogs will be there with wagging tails to make you feel welcome as only a dog can.
Proceeds of this special evening will be used to fund the ongoing work in Asia as well as to equip special veterinary trucks to provide much needed aid in emergency dog rescue missions.
