The Candlelight Club's Birthday Party

A clandestine 1920s speakeasy party in a secret London venue completely lit by candles, with live jazz bands, cabaret and retro-DJs. The bar dispenses vintage cocktails and the kitchens offer a fine-dining set menu as well as bar snacks and sharing platters.

This time it’s a special party to celebrate six years of giving the authorities the slip while we dispense bootleg liquor and whip up a storm on the dance floor with the raunchy, raucous rhythms of Prohibition jazz. We have live music from the Benoit Viellefon Quintet, plus vintage vinylism from DJ Auntie Maureen spinning shellac. And leading the charge with a song, a slap and a tickle will be that Lord of Cabaret Misrule, impish impresario Champagne Charlie. Let the music play and the giggle-water flow!

Guests receive an email two days before, revealing the secret location, and are encouraged to dress in 1920s outfits—so pull on your flapper dress and get ready to Charleston!

"The closest you'll find to an authentic Jazz Age experience in central London. Its unique ambience, fuelled by hundreds of candles, is truly a scene to behold." —Time Out
